Lee Carsley's side have impressed from the outset, winning all of their five matches without conceding a goal, but they will be preparing themselves for their toughest match of the tournament.

Spain are the top scorers in the competition with 13 goals and approach the final full of confidence after romping to a 5-1 semi-final success over Ukraine on Wednesday.

There is still also a race on for the Golden Boot in this tournament, and as we head into the final.

Close contest anticipated

The markets are struggling to split England and Spain, who are both 5/6 to get their hands on the European Under-21 Championship trophy.

England's progress to the final has been serene.

They qualified for the knockout rounds with a game to spare after 2-0 victories over the Czech Republic and Israel.

And they maintained a 100 per cent record in Group C with a 2-0 success over defending champions Germany which resulted in their opponents' elimination.

England passed their toughest in the quarter-finals, when Anthony Gordon's first-half goal sealed a narrow 1-0 success over Portugal.

But they were back to their best in the final four as goals from Morgan Gibbs-White, Cole Palmer and Cameron Archer completed a convincing 3-0 victory over Israel.

Spain's path to the final also began with a flying start and their passage to the knockout rounds was assured after successes over Romania (3-0) and Croatia (1-0). Top spot in Group B was clinched with a 2-2 draw against Ukraine.

Like England, they were given a stern test in the quarter-finals, defeating Switzerland 2-1 after extra-time, but the shackles came off in the final four when they defeated Ukraine 5-1.

Several players contending to top the scoring charts

The race to finish as the tournament’s top goalscorer looks even tougher to predict than the final itself.

Three players share top spot on three goals, including Ukraine's Georgiy Sudakov, whose race was run after his team's 5-1 loss to Spain in the semi-finals.

Sudakov can earn no more than a share of top scorer honours, but there are several contenders to finish top of the pile on their own.

Spain striker Abel Ruiz took his tally to three with his team’s first goal of the semi-final success over Ukraine and is evens to finish as the leading marksman.

His team-mate, Manchester City left wing-back Sergio Gomez, who has played in a more offensive position this summer, is also on three goals and is 15/8 to top the charts.

England have three players, Cameron Archer, Anthony Gordon and Emile Smith Rowe, on two goals.

Gordon is a 12-1 chance to top the scorers list, while Archer and Smith Rowe are both available at 16/1.
