How to watch England Women vs Italy Women — live stream the Lionesses's international friendly

Lucy Bronze chases after the ball for the England Lionesses.

The England Women vs Italy Women live stream might be a friendly match, but it is always notable when these two nations meet in any form of football. Plenty of players are looking to impress Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman – and you watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

England Women vs Italy Women: Live streams, TV channel

England were impressive on Friday. They swept Austria away, claiming a 7-2 victory. Regulars like Beth Mead and Alessia Russo were on the scoresheet, as was debutant Grace Clinton. The midfielder is on loan at Tottenham from Man Utd and continues to impress.

The Lionesses will be frustrated to have conceded two rather cheap headed goals, something for Wiegman and her squad to improve on in this next match. Chloe Kelly is fit to return, but Fran Kirby remains a doubt. Mary Earps could replace Hannah Hampton between the posts.

Le Azzurre are a growing concern in the women’s game, moving their way up the FIFA rankings. Their last result was a relatively uninspiring 0-0 draw with Ireland, but they beat World Champions Spain back in December, showing England cannot take their opponents lightly.

Ultimately, these are friendly games and the intention is to know more about the players. Wins are always welcome though, so expect maximum effort from both these sides and the Lionesses coming out on top.
