England face Andorra in a World Cup qualifier this weekend as the Thomas Tuchel era continues.
The Three Lions have made a flying start to qualification, picking up maximum points from their opening three games which includes a 1-0 win in the reverse meeting against Andorra in June.
As a result, England are in total control of Group K and will be aiming to take another big step towards confirming their place at the World Cup next summer.
However, Tuchel does head into this fixture with his 100 per cent winning record no longer intact after his side were well beaten by Senegal in a friendly during the last international window.
That said, Tuchel will be expected to ensure England return to winning ways against an Andorra side that has made a terrible start to qualification.
Without a single point after four games, Andorra sit bottom of the table with no goals scored and a minus eight goal difference.
Date, kick-off time and venue
England vs Andorra is scheduled for a 5pm BST kick-off on Saturday, September 6, 2025.
The match will take place at Villa Park.

England vs Andorra team news
For one reason or another, Thomas Tuchel is without as many as 10 players from the last squad. Bukayo Saka, Cole Palmer, Jude Bellingham and Levi Colwill are all sidelined through injury.
Meanwhile, Trent Alexander-Arnold has not been selected, with Tuchel explaining the new Real Madrid star is behind Chelsea’s Reece James in the pecking order at present.
Adam Wharton has pulled out of the squad because of an adductor injury sustained in Crystal Palace’s 3-0 win over Aston Villa on Sunday.
This means Ruben Loftus-Cheek has received his first call-up since 2018 to replace Wharton, while defender Jarell Quansah has been added to the squad.
Elsewhere, Djed Spence and Elliot Anderson could win their first caps at senior level. Noni Madueke impressed against Andorra in the away fixture and has a decent chance of starting alongside the in-form Harry Kane.
England vs Andorra prediction
Thomas Tuchel will know the tougher test is against Serbia next week. That said, he will have a lot to answer for if the Three Lions fail beat Andorra, and in convincing fashion.
Despite Tuchel being without number of big names, England should win this comfortably, extending their perfect record in qualification under the German tactician.
England to win, 5-0.
