First look at Uefa Nations League fan parks as England supporters arrive in Porto

The final touches are being added in the centre of Porto as they prepare welcome fans from across the continent for the inaugural Uefa Nations League finals.

Portugal face Switzerland in the opening game on Wednesday night before England take on the Netherlands in their semi-final in Guimaraes, about 50 minutes from Porto, on Thursday.

Plenty of fans have already landed and are beginning to enjoy everything Porto has to offer, with the bulk of England fans seemingly basing themselves here in the hope England reach Sunday's final, held at Estadio do Dragao.

Fans can take the Metro to Aliados and find themselves in the heart of a Fan Park with two big screens, seating and a number of pop-up bars and restaurants, as well as those in the streets surrounding.

Further to that, should England beat the Netherlands to reach the final, there will be a separate Fan Meeting Point for the England fans in the Alfandega area of the city, where Three Lions supporters with tickets can jump on free coaches to take them to the stadium.

There will also be ten trains to and from Guimaraes for those England fans with tickets for Thursday's semi-final. The trains will be free of charge and depart from Campanha station.
