Thomas Tuchel's England continues its World Cup 2026 preparations with an intriguing friendly test at Wembley on Tuesday against Japan, the tournament's dark horse.
The match marks England's final friendly before Tuchel names his 26-man squad for the World Cup after Friday's 1-1 draw with Uruguay. The Three Lions will be without Arsenal trio Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka and Noni Madueke who have all returned to their club for "medical assessment," while Man City defender John Stones has also pulled out of the squad.
They host a Japan team that breezed through qualification to reach this summer's tournament, with the Samurai Blue coming into this game off the back of an assured 1-0 win over Scotland in Glasgow on Saturday thanks to a late Junya Ito goal.
England takes on Japan at Wembley Stadium in North London on Tuesday, March 31. Kickoff is set for 7:45 p.m. BST local time. That makes it a 2:45 p.m. ET or 11:45 a.m. PT kickoff in the US and Canada. For viewers in Australia, the game gets underway at 5:45 a.m. AEDT on Wednesday morning.
