England vs Germany: Women’s Euro 2022 final prediction, kick off time today, TV, live stream, team news, h2h

England Women will this evening have the chance to win a first major tournament when they face Germany in the Euro 2022 final at Wembley.

Home support will be on the Lionesses’ side and so too a wave of confidence after a sensational run up to this point from Sarina Wiegman’s side.

They have conceded just once all tournament and a dominant 4-0 semi-final win over Sweden proved the front-line is well and truly firing. Beth Mead has six goals to her name, while Alessia Russo has four despite starting every match on the bench.

Twice England have made it to the final of a European Championship in the past, in 1984 and 2009. On both occasions they fell at the final hurdle.

That is direct contrast to the eight European titles Germany have to their name - only twice since 1987 have they not been in the final. Like Mead, Alexandra Popp has found the back of the net six times and the pair will battle for the Golden Boot.

Germany seemingly suffered no injury problems in their semi-final win over France.

The big concern for them will be Klara Buhl, who missed that match with Covid. She will need to produce a negative test in the coming days if she is to feature at Wembley.

England vs Germany prediction

The Lionesses are going from strength to strength and have shown no signs of being impacted by the added pressure of hosting the tournament.

Confidence is flowing through the camp and even if the starting XI is struggling, there is so much strength in depth waiting in reverse and no team has been able to live with England’s substitutes so far.

Germany have only conceded one goal all tournament and have the experience of delivering on the biggest stage time and time again, so it is unlikely to be the kind of comfortable win that England produced against Norway and Sweden.

But Wiegman has transformed the mentality of the side - they are ready to go all the way.

A 2-0 England win.
