What time is the england game today

After an unbeaten start under new manager Sarina Wiegman, England begin their Euro 2022 campaign at Old Trafford tonight full of confidence as they face an Austria side ranked 21st in the world.

The hosts are among the favourites for the competition and have enjoyed a brilliant run of form under the guidance of their new manager, the former Netherlands boss Wiegman. She has overseen 14 matches as manager, winning 12 and drawing just two as England look to capitalise on their status as one of the favourites for this competition.

The Lionesses have been in brilliant form in the build-up to the tournament, scoring 12 goals and conceding just one over the course of their three wins in warm-up games. This included a 5-1 win over the Netherlands, with whom Wiegman won the competition in 2017.

After her side's final warm-up match, Wiegman spoke to the press, telling ITV that her side were in a 'very good place'. She explained: "We always have things to improve, I think we're in a very good place but that'll show in the Euros. These are all friendlies, it's very nice to learn from it but it really starts next Wednesday. We're in a very good place but still have to improve a couple of things."

The Three Lions are all set for a replay of the classic Euro 2020 clash against Germany as they look to bounce back from their opening UEFA Nations League defeat to Hungary.

Gareth Southgate’s fell to a 1-0 defeat in Budapest, their first defeat since the penalty shoot out defeat to Italy in the European Championship final, but will return to face a familiar foes this coming week as they aim to show their credentials ahead of the Qatar World Cup.

James Justin and Josh Bowen were both handed their England debuts in the defeat to the Hungarians, but they are expected to return to a full strength XI for the game against a side they have plenty of footballing history with.

In the first of these Nations League ties, the team will head to the Allianz Arena in Munich to face a Germany side who opened their own Nations League with a 1-1 drew against Italy, thanks to a lat Joshua Kimmich strike.

A capacity crowd is expected, with the Three Lions away end completely sold out.

Here is all you need to know ahead of England’s next two fixtures.

The Three Lions face three games in 7 days, with each game part of the Nations League campaign. The games are as follows:

Germany vs England – Tuesday June 7

England vs Italy – Saturday June 11

England vs Hungary – Tuesday June 14

However, much like England’s game against Hungary at the weekend, the game against Italy will be played behind closed doors.

Where: Allianz Arena, Munich, Germany, Tuesday June 4, Kick-off: 7:45pm

Like the Hungary game at the weekend Channel 4 will screen this big clash live, with the programme starting at 7pm.

The England matches in the UEFA Nations League are on Channel 4 for the first time and will be presented by Jules Breach, with Steve Bower leading the commentary alongside former England internationals Rob Green and Graeme Le Saux as co-commentators.

Channel 4 has confirmed Breach will take centre stage as the lead presenter for Channel 4, presenting from pitch-side in Munich as England face Germany, alongside former England goal scoring hero turned pundit, Michael Owen.

England Women’s international Jordan Nobbs and Joe Cole will join the punditry team in Munich.

Goalkeepers: Jordan Pickford (Everton), Nick Pope (Burnley), Aaron Ramsdale (Arsenal)

Defenders: Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Conor Coady (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Marc Guéhi (Crystal Palace), Reece James (Chelsea), James Justin (Leicester City) Harry Maguire (Manchester United), John Stones (Manchester City), Fikayo Tomori (AC Milan), Kieran Trippier (Newcastle United), Kyle Walker (Manchester City), Ben White (Arsenal)

Midfielders: Jude Bellingham (Borussia Dortmund), Conor Gallagher (Crystal Palace, loan from Chelsea), Mason Mount (Chelsea), Kalvin Phillips (Leeds United), Declan Rice (West Ham United), James Ward-Prowse (Southampton)

Forwards: Tammy Abraham (AS Roma), Jarrod Bowen (West Ham United), Phil Foden (Manchester City), Jack Grealish (Manchester City), Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur), Bukayo Saka (Arsenal), Raheem Sterling (Manchester City)

The FA is required to stage matches behind closed doors as part of sanctions handed out by UEFA after a number of ticketless supporters forced their way into Wembley 11 months ago.

England lost on penalties to Italy last summer in the final and will meet them again in the Nations League, having lost in Hungary and drawn in Germany in their opening two games.

“A lot of the people who caused the problems I am not certain were football fans but we have spoken enough about it. We spoke after the final, we spoke when the punishment was first given.”

For those not in attendance, here's what you need to keep up with the action.

Channel 4 will broadcast the fixture, which kicks off at 7.45pm. Coverage will start from 7pm on Saturday.

The Leeds-based TV channel won the broadcast rights for England’s Nations League games, Euro 2024 qualifiers and friendlies over the next two years.

Highlights will be shown at 11.35pm on the same channel.

The match can be live streamed via Channel 4's online service All4. It is available online or as an app on mobiles and games consoles.

Phil Foden trained on Friday after overcoming Covid-19 while Kalvin Phillips sat out after he was injured early in Tuesday's game against Germany following a challenge with Nico Schlotterbeck

Gareth Southgate has said Foden remains “doubtful” as he recovers from the virus after rejoining the squad on their return from Munich. A decision has yet to be made on Phillips, who remains a doubt.

Trent Alexander-Arnold left the camp following the draw with Germany as agreed after Liverpool reached both domestic Cup finals and the Champions League final alongside their 38 Premier League games. James Ward-Prowse is poised to start.
