Three Lions eyeing semi-final spot but face familiar face

England tonight take on Norway with a place in the World Cup semi-finals at stake.

The Three Lions last weekend produced a performance for the ages to beat Mexico at the Estadio Azteca to book their place in the last eight, with a peak television audience tuning in across the country despite the delayed kick-off time of 2am on Monday morning.

Thomas Tuchel’s men again had Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane to thank as their star duo netted the crucial goals that saw them progress.

Their opponents are a bit more a surprise, however, with most slating Brazil to be the likely counterparts in Miami, Florida.

However, it is Stale Solbakken’s Norway who England will face the Hard Rock Stadium, after Erling Haaland’s late brace knocked the Selecao out in stunning style in the last 16.

For England, three main concerns appear to have all been allayed on the eve of the game.

Reece James, Marc Guehi and Declan Rice all missed training on Thursday, undertaking their own individual programmes after the Mexico win, but were able to join the group on Friday.

James, the Chelsea right-back, had sat out the last two games with a hamstring injury, but is believed to be in line for a comeback, while Rice is also managing some lower back pain, which he played through against Mexico.

Centre-back Guehi has started all but the first match against Croatia, and was absent from training as a precautionary measure.

Otherwise, Thomas Tuchel has a full complement to select from, but he is unlikely to deviate from what has worked well so far in north America.

As for the Norwegians, their camp was struck down by a nasty bug in the build-up to this match. However, team doctor Ola Sand has confirmed that all players are fit to face the Three Lions.

"All players are healthy now. Very little fuss considering that we have been close together for almost six weeks. We are in control,” she said.

As such, it means that Solbakken has a full crop to select from, and that could see star marksman Erling Haaland go up against his Premier League colleagues.

The same can be said of Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard, who will lock horns with club-mate Rice in the engine room.

Defenders: Kristoffer Ajer, Torbjorn Heggem, Leo Skiri Ostigard, Julian Ryerson, Marcus Holmgren Pedersen, David Moller Wolfe, Fredrik Bjorkan, Sondre Langas, Henrik Falchener

England vs Norway prediction

This will be a tougher game than many think, especially after Norway’s shock win over Brazil.

They have that ruthlessness in front of goal with Haaland, but he does need the service in order to finish those chances.

Snuff that out, and the Three Lions could be in business. Leave yourselves open to a counter-attack, and you could be in trouble.

England to win, 2-1 after extra time.
