England is going head to head with Ukraine starting on 26 Mar 2023 at 16:00 UTC at Wembley Stadium stadium, London city, England. The match is a part of the European Championship, Qualification Group C.
Currently, England rank 1st, while Ukraine hold 3rd position.
Aiming to continue their 100% start in Euro 2024 qualifying Group C, England return to the Wembley turf to host Ukraine on Sunday evening.
The Three Lions defeated reigning champions Italy 2-1 in Naples on Thursday, while the visitors are kickstarting their bid for tickets to Germany this weekend.
Less than two months after becoming the greatest goalscorer in the history of Tottenham Hotspur, Harry Kane now stands alone at the top of the England goalscoring charts with 54 goals, leaving Wayne Rooney behind with what turned out to be the winning goal against Italy in midweek.
Following Declan Rice’s 13th-minute opener, Kane banished his penalty demons from the World Cup to double England’s lead before the break, but a resurgent Azzurri threatened a late comeback through debutant Mateo Retegui – Luke Shaw’s late sending off hardly helped matters for the visitors either.

England vs Ukraine Prediction
England have an impressive squad at their disposal and will be intent on topping their qualification group. The likes of Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka can be lethal on their day and will look to be at their best this weekend.
Ukraine are capable of putting up a robust front and can pull off an upset on their day. England are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to win this game.

Only a minute after being booked for taking too long on a throw-in, Shaw received his marching orders for a challenge on Retegui, so Ben Chilwell should cover for the suspended Manchester United man here.
A worrying sight for Borussia Dortmund fans, Jude Bellingham limped off the field late on and will need assessing ahead of this contest, but Jordan Henderson and Conor Gallagher are both on standby if the in-demand teenager does not make the cut. Meanwhile, Reece James has pulled out as he continues assessment on an ongoing problem.
