Ukraine will host England in the Stadion Wrocław for the UEFA Euro Championship qualifiers in Group C on Saturday evening. Ukraine came into this game on the back of a 1-0 win against Malta in their most recent game. A second-half penalty from Girona forward Viktor Tsyhankov secured the win for Ukraine. Ukraine have named a strong squad, with the likes of Arsenal’s Oleksandr Zinchenko and Everton left-back Vitalii Mykolenko named. However, the focus will be on Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk.
On the other hand, the Three Lions will enter the game with a 7-0 hammering of North Macedonia. This 7-star performance saw a brace from Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane and a hat-trick from Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka. Additionally, Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford and Man City’s defender Kalvin Phillips also chipped in. This secured the win for England. The Three Lions have arguably, two of the best midfielders in the world in Arsenal’s Declan Rice and Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham. Bellingham in particular, is already a fan favorite among the Real Madrid faithful.
Elsewhere, Harry Kane has enjoyed a sharp start to his Bayern Munich career. While the likes of Bukayo Saka, Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden will provide able support in attack. There have been a couple of interesting call-ups in defence, with Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi and AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori both named. It will be interesting to see how long Gareth Southgate rotates players like Henderson, Maguire and Kalvin Phillips in such a wide variety of choices
Ukraine‘s probable starting lineup: Lunin, Konoplya, Zabarnyi, Krystov, Mykolenko, Stepanenko, Sydorchuk, Zinchenko, Yarmolenko, Vanat, Tsygankov
England’s probable starting lineup: Pickford, Walker, Guehi, Maguire, Chilwell, Bellingham, Rice, Henderson, Saka, Kane, Rashford
