England will look to step up their Euro 2022 preparations against the Netherlands tonight as Sarina Wiegman takes on her former team at Elland Road.

Weigman guided her country to European Championships glory in 2017 before the Netherlands also reached the final of the 2019 and they head into this summer’s tournament as one of the favourites.

England defeated Belgium 3-0 at Molineux on Thursday in their first match since announcing their 23-player squad for the home tournament but will face a tougher test against the No 4 ranked Netherlands, who included a host of stars such as Arsenal’s Vivianne Miedema.

With less than two weeks to go before the start of the Euros, this will be England’s last game on home soil before opening the tournament at Old Trafford. Wiegman’s side will fly out to Switzerland for a training camp after tonight’s match.

Here’s everything you need to know.
