The Three Lions have been on a disappointing Nations League campaign. They are winless in five matches, losing to Hungary twice, Italy once, and drawing with Germany and Italy.
Gareth Southgate’s men have been demoted to League B following their 1-0 defeat against Italy last Friday.
Similarly, Friday’s 0-1 defeat to Hungary ended Germany’s hope of reaching the Nations League Finals.
Though it may be a dead-rubber game for England and Germany regarding their Nations League group standings, there’s plenty to play for. Pressure will be on Southgate and Hansi Flick to gain momentum with a win before flying to Qatar in November.
