England are preparing for their opening game of Euro 2025 against France as the Lionesses kick off their title defence in Zurich.
The holders have been battling the heat this week but temperatures are likely to cool ahead of their Group D clash against Les Bleues on Saturday evening. The big selection decision is likely to be around Lauren James and Sarina Wiegman has suggested James could start England’s opening match of Euro 2025 against France, or could at least play a significant role in the game, after the forward recovered from a hamstring injury to be fit for the tournament.
