England vs Argentina
Fifa Women's World Cup 2019
Venue: Stade Océane, Le Havre
Date: Friday 14 June
Kick-off time: 8pm BST

England come up against another old international rival in Argentina in the second match of the Fifa Women’s World Cup.

The Lioness’ got their campaign off to a winning start on Sunday with Nikita Parris and Ellen White on the score sheet in a 2-1 win over Scotland in Nice – getting a helping hand from the video assistant referee.

Two wins from two would go a long way to securing qualification from a competitive group that also includes Japan – who ended England’s last run in this competition four years ago at the semi-final stage.

Argentina are competing in this competition for the first time since 2007.

Defender Millie Bright suffered a shoulder injury on Sunday but head coach Phil Neville has said he would be "very suprised" if she is not ready to face Argentina.


Prediction: England 3-0 Argentina

England will be confident of registering another win after navigating their way past a tricky first test against Scotland.
