England vs Finland: Nations League prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, H2H, odds today

Lee Carsley will take his place in the England dugout for the first time tonight at Wembley Stadium when Finland take on the Three Lions.

A potentially tricky trip to Dublin turned into a routine task for England in their opening Nations League match, with Declan Rice and Jack Grealish almost inevitably getting on the scoresheet against the Republic of Ireland, for whom they had both previously played.

After being relegated to League B of this competition, England are expected to comfortably top the group as they face Finland, Greece and Ireland.

Finland suffered a heavy defeat to Greece on Saturday and have had little to cheer about in recent months. Wales are one of the teams that will easily win big against them in 2024.

Date, kick-off time and location

Kick-off for the England vs Finland match is scheduled for today, Tuesday 10 September 2024, at 19:45 BST.

The game takes place at Wembley Stadium in London.

Team news England vs Finland

Anthony Gordon and Grealish both impressed against Ireland and will get another chance to shine at Wembley with the likes of Cole Palmer, Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden missing from the squad.

John Stones is expected to start at centre-back after coming off the bench in Dublin, while Angel Gomes and Morgan Gibbs-White will be hoping for another start after making their debuts last time out.

Rico Lewis and Ezri Konsa could also join the team, while Levi Colwill and Harry Maguire will likely sit on the bench.

Finland will rely on Glen Kamara to provide creativity in midfield, while former Norwich striker Teemu Pukki could play a role if he returns to England.

Prediction England vs Finland

There were plenty of encouraging signs in Dublin, especially the English performance in the first half, which was full of attacking ambition.

Carsley will be keen for his team to maintain that intensity throughout the game this time, against a Finnish side that should not pose too many problems.
