England return to action for the first time since June as they prepare to face Italy in their penultimate UEFA Nations League game on Friday, where a win is essential if they are to avoid relegation.
The Three Lions currently sit bottom of Group 3 in League A, having drawn two and lost two of their opening four games, leaving them three points from safety and now unable to qualify for the Nations League finals next summer.
A defeat tonight would relegate them to League B, as they already sit three points behind Italy in third, but a win for Gil Azzurri would keep alive their hopes of topping the group and making the finals next year.
