England travel to Prague this evening to face the Czech Republic in the Nations League, with Thomas Tuchel's side looking to bounce back from an opening defeat.
England's Nations League opener
The Three Lions began their campaign with a 3-2 home loss to Spain at Wembley on Saturday night. While there was encouragement in their attacking play, defensive frailties continued to cause frustration.
World champions Spain proved too strong, and the defeat in the opening match has increased the pressure on the fixture in the Czech capital.
Tuchel's assessment
Ahead of the clash, Tuchel said "it's a bit early for a 'must win'" but acknowledged that three points would ease concerns among England supporters.
The German boss also discussed the goalkeeping situation, saying: "We use the Nations League to see where we are with the other goalkeepers. There was no reason from performances to open up this position for competition."
He added: "I think it's necessary with every other player that we are aware of 'what if'. If a player that starts a season well, like Traff (James Trafford) at Leeds, [has] the chance to prove it and to play in our style. We just need to see it at some point. We use this competition to actually give him the chance to push on."
Match details and how to watch
The game kicks off at 7.45pm BST at the Fortuna Arena in Prague. It will be shown for free on ITV1, with coverage starting at 7pm. Fans can also stream the match on the ITVX app.
Spain Under-21 coach Santi Denia praised England's development, stating: "The development of the FA is unbelievable. They have invested a lot of money in their young players. The facilities. This is the way to grow. Invest a lot of money in young players."
He continued: "The association give a lot of opportunities for performances with friendly games. I think it is one of the best federations in the world. I think it's very, very close. The level of Spain and England, also the clubs. The national teams are the same. You showed in the previous match, it's very close. It's details. I don't want to compare both teams. It's a different style. They are big teams, big coaches, big players."
