England battle Brazil tonight in a marquee friendly fixture at Wembley.

England are unbeaten since being knocked out of the World Cup quarter-finals by France in Qatar in 2022 but failed to hit top gear in the last round of internationals, as they rounded off Euros qualification by beating Malta 2-0 and drawing in North Macedonia.

Gareth Southgate will be focused on bigger things in this month’s games against Brazil and Belgium yet a pair of wins will lift the nation’s mood considerably ahead of a title tilt in Germany.

Brazil, playing under new coach Dorival Junior for the first time, are on a run of three consecutive defeats and are without several high-profile players as they also meet Spain in Madrid on Tuesday.

Date, kick-off time and venue

England vs Brazil is scheduled for a 7pm GMT kick-off tonight on Saturday March 23, 2024.

The match will take place at Wembley Stadium.
