England come into the latest World Cup campaign having reached the 2023 final, losing out to Spain in Australia.

The Lionesses did gain revenge, however, by beating La Roja in the 2025 European Championships final to retain their crown from three years prior.

Spain are the fourth and final member of Group 3 alongside England, Ukraine and Iceland, with only the top team qualifying automatically for next summer’s tournament, which is being held in Brazil.
