England host Finland at Wembley tonight as the Three Lions look to take maximum points from their first two fixtures of the 2025 Nations League campaign – on what is Harry Kane’s 100th appearance for his country.
Lee Carsley’s team strolled to a 2-0 win over Ireland last time out, with Declan Rice and Jack Grealish grabbing the goals as a new-look Three Lions dominated possession and provided plenty of attacking threat. And England’s players will be looking to put in a solid performance as they face Finland, with two squad players still to make their debuts and others keen to cement themselves in the interim manager’s thoughts.
Finland lost 3-0 to Greece in their first fixture, so England will be confident of securing a result, but the performance will arguably be scrutinised more than the scoreline as Carlsey looks to take a step towards the permanent position.

England host Finland at Wembley in the second match of their 2025 Nations League campaign, with the Three Lions looking to build on a positive result last time out.
Lee Carsley took charge of his first match in the interim role last week, and his new-look side produced a positive performance as they easily dismantled Ireland in Dublin.
Despite receiving plenty of pre-match attention for his squad announcement and his opinion on singing the national anthem, Carsley quickly put that to bed as his side produced a first-half attacking performance full of intent and innovation, with Declan Rice and Jack Grealish – both on the receiving end of plenty of boos throughout – producing brilliant moments to effectively seal the result within the first 45 minutes.
England will be confident of putting in a similarly dominant performance at home to Iceland, with plenty of intrigue surrounding the team’s performance and potential debuts for Tino Livramento and Noni Madueke.
Good evening!
