How to watch today's England vs Wales World Cup qualification game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

Englandface Wales in an international friendly at Wembley on Thursday with both teams entering under different spells of momentum and squad evolution.

England are flying high under Thomas Tuchel, riding a winning streak in World Cup qualifying and sitting top of Group K with a perfect record. Their last two outings saw a 2-0 win over Andorra and a dominant 5-0 victory in Serbia.

Wales, meanwhile, are in third place in Group J, just a point off the top. Despite some promising runs in qualification, Wales have a poor recent record against England, losing their last seven meetings and scoring just one goal in that span.

England team news

For this window, Tuchel has opted for a 24-man squad, leaving out stars like Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden, and Jack Grealish, but sees Bukayo Saka return from injury.

The usual core of Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford, Declan Rice, John Stones, and Anthony Gordon is joined by new faces like Jarell Quansah and Nico O’Reilly. England’s only real injury worry is Trent Alexander-Arnold, while Noni Madueke and Tino Livramento also remain sidelined.

Wales team news

Wales enter this clash without Aaron Ramsey, who is sidelined with injury, and also miss winger Dan James.

Cardiff City’s Isaak Davies and Rubin Colwill have been called up as replacements.
