England host Ukraine at Wembley tonight as Gareth Southgate’s side continue their Euro 2024 qualifying campaign.

More than 1,000 Ukainians have been invited to the fixture as guests of the FA following Russia’s invasion of the country, with England also planning a display of solidarity.

On the pitch England will look to build on their opening victory in Italy which gave Southgate’s side a perfect start in Group C.

“They have had to grind and dig in away from home, which is hugely important and given our record here is a massive result,” Southgate said, as England secured their first win in Italy since 1961.

Here’s everything you need to know.

When is England vs Ukraine?

The match will kick off at 5pm BST on Sunday 26 March at Wembley.

How can I watch it?

It will be shown live on Channel 4 in the UK, with coverage starting at 4pm. It will also be available to stream on All 4.

What was the England team news?

England head into their clash against Ukraine with a depleted squad. Marcus Rashford, Mason Mount and Nick Pope withdrew from the initial selection, with Reece James pulling out of the squad on Saturday for an assessment on what the Football Association called an “ongoing issue”.

Luke Shaw trained with the group on the eve of the game but is suspended following his sending-off for two yellow cards in Italy. Southgate is hopeful they have “just about got enough to get through the game”, downplaying concerns over midfielders Jordan Henderson, Jude Bellingham and Kalvin Phillips.

“They’re all good,” the England boss said. “With Kalvin, (Italy) was his first 90 for a little while. He had 90 at Bristol City in the cup, so we’ll just have to assess freshness as much as anything. “But that’s the same with the whole group. It is that time of the year and we have got to get the balance right of continuity, consistency, but also freshness.”
