England vs France: Live stream, TV channel, kick-off time & where to watch

England face their toughest battle until now in the 2022 World Cup as they are set to clash against France at the Al Bayt Stadium on Saturday.

This will be the third World Cup meeting between England and France, with the Three Lions winning on both the previous two, a 2-0 victory in 1966 and 3-1 in 1982. On the other hand, France have only lost one of their last eight meetings with England across all competitions (W5 D2) and won the last encounter 3-2 - a friendly in June 2017.

All eyes will be on Kylian Mbappe who is in a rich vein of form and is leading the Golden Boot charts with five goals. On the other hand, Harry Kanehas scored 52 goals for England in all competitions, just one short of Wayne Rooney’s all-time record (53), and this should act as a motivation for the Tottenham striker to fire on all cylinders against Les Bleus.
