England vs Senegal: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h results, odds today

England tonight take on Senegal in an international friendly with head coach Thomas Tuchel demanding a much-improved performance.

Facing a side unbeaten in their last 15 games, the England players will have to raise their performance levels – even if some appear to be running on empty following a long season.

Senegal, ‘the Lions of Teranga’, warmed up for this friendly with a 1-1 draw against the Republic of Ireland on Friday. They were staring defeat in the face until Crystal Palace winger Ismaila Sarr equalised inside the final 10 minutes.

Just a second-ever meeting between the two nations awaits as Tuchel looks to extend his perfect winning record as England boss to four games.

England vs Senegal is scheduled for a 7.45pm BST kick-off tonight, Tuesday, June 10, 2025.

The match will take place at the City Ground, Nottingham.

TV channel: In the UK, the game will be televised live on ITV. Coverage starts at 7pm BST on ITV1 ahead of kick-off at 7.45pm.

Live stream: ITVX will offer a live stream service.

England expect to have Bukayo Saka fit after a minor fitness issue kept him out of the win over Andorra. The fact that the Arsenal star was present for the pre-match media conference was the first good sign regarding his availability.

Meanwhile, Tuchel has said he will name a much-changed team on Tuesday so that could see the likes of Declan Rice, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Eberechi Eze and Anthony Gordon all come into the starting line-up.

Senegal came through their friendly against the Republic of Ireland with a clean bill of health still intact and head coach Pape Thiaw could had starts to Sarr, Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson and ex-Blues pair Edouard Mendy and Kalidou Koulibaly.

For the first time in Tuchel’s short reign as England manager, a tough test awaits. Regardless of the performances against Albania, Latvia and Andorra, the Three Lions delivered victories having been overwhelming favourites for all three fixtures.
