Ezri Konsa and Nico O’Reilly are injury doubts after training individually on Monday. Asked for an update at his pre-match press conference later in the day, Thomas Tuchel was unable to confirm the pair’s involvement against the Czechs.

Tuchel could, though, be tempted to stick with the same midfield and attacking trio that started at Wembley, as captain Harry Kane goes in search of another goal.

Adam Karabec scored the Czech Republic’s equaliser against Croatia before later limping off and is therefore a major doubt to face England.

Newcastle's Lukas Hornicek is expected to get the nod in goal over Tottenham's Antonin Kinsky, former West Ham defender Vladimir Coufal is set to captain the side but Tomas Soucek is absent through injury.

Czech Republic vs England prediction

England had their moments against Spain, but were ultimately punished by their own mistakes and some quality finishing from the world champions.

Facing the Czech Republic is arguably the perfect game for Tuchel’s side as they look to swiftly bounce back and avoid falling further behind the top two in the group.

Injury issues have slightly impacted Tuchel's ability to rotate, particularly in defence and midfield, but they should have more than enough attacking talent to get the job done here.

England to win, 3-0.

Head to head (h2h) history and results

England have only ever lost once to the Czech Republic, that came on October 11, 2019 in qualification for Euro 2020 when Kane’s fifth minute penalty was swiftly cancelled out by Jakub Brabec before Zdenek Ondrasek scored the winner in the 85th minute.
