    WHAT DO ENGLAND NEED TO DO?
    England are currently without a point in Group D following their MD1 defeat to France and will be looking to get their first win to kickstart the defence of their crown.
    England can't be knocked out of the tournament either with a draw or a defeat, but it would mean they would need favours from other teams in the group, something Sarina Wiegman will not want to have to do.
    If the Lionesses were to lose tonight and France were to England lose to the Netherlands, and France were to draw or beat Wales, their title defence would be over and they will be heading home.
    England though, will be looking to put their best foot forward tonight without relying on others and beat the Dutch, a result which would take them to three points, level with the Netherlands (and France, who play later tonight).
