But squeezed in between will be warm-up fixtures for the likes of England, Scotland, Wales, France and Portugal.

Gareth Southgate will be using the two fixtures against Austria and Romania to prepare his team for a big summer of football.

Both games will be plated at the Riverside Stadium, home of Middlesbrough.

Brighton defender Ben White is a surprise inclusion, alongside Everton’s Ben Godfrey.

When are Scotland’s warm-up fixtures?

And his team will then travel to play Luxembourg days later.

The reigning champions are looking to win the Euros back-to-back with an arguably stronger squad than the side that beat France in the 2016 Euros final.

But up first, Portugal will travel to continental neighbours Spain and play a warm-up fixture at the home of Spanish champions Atletico Madrid.

Portugal will then face Israel on home soil before preparing to face Hungary in their opening Euro 2020 fixture.
