ENGLAND will be aiming to continue their momentum ahead of the 2022 Qatar World Cup when they face Switzerland THIS EVENING.

The Three Lions went undefeated in their World Cup qualifiers winning eight out of 10 games and comfortably topping the group by six points.

And Gareth Southgate can use this fixture as an opportunity to give inexperienced players their first senior international debut.

However, the Swiss will also be heading to the World Cup after going undefeated finishing top of Group C ahead of Euro 2020 winners Italy.

So the England boss will be well aware that this match is far from a foregone conclusion.
