England vs Iceland live stream: how to watch international friendly online and on TV, team news

England's Trent Alexander-Arnold slides for the ball in a June 2024 friendly against Bosnia & Herzegovina.

England take on Iceland today at Wembley Stadium in their final warm-up game before they travel to Germany for Euro 2024. Manager Gareth Southgate has already named his 26-man squad for the tournament but players will want to impress as they look to force their way into the starting line-up for the first match against Serbia. 

A free live stream will be available on Channel 4 in the UK. In the US, the game is available on ViX, in Canada, it’s DAZN and a live stream is on Optus Sport in Australia. You can use a VPN to watch from anywhere in the world.

After a somewhat sluggish start against Bosnia and Herzegovina on Monday night, England eventually found their rhythm as they ran out 3-0 winners. More than the result, it was important that players took their chance to impress Southgate and the likes of Eberechi Eze, Cole Palmer and Trent Alexander-Arnold did exactly that.

Strikers Ivan Toney and Ollie Watkins will be desperate for a chance to excel against an Iceland side that failed to qualify for Euro 2024 after losing 2-1 to Ukraine in the Uefa Path B play-off final. However, it is unlikely both will start as Southgate has spoken of the need to give Harry Kane extra minutes as he continues to recover from a back injury. 

Here's how the team's will line up: 

England XI: Ramsdale, Walker, Trippier, Rice, Stones, Guehi, Palmer, Mainoo, Kane, Foden, Gordon.

Substitutes: Gomez, Henderson, Quansah, Konsa, Gallagher, Toney, Watkins, Alexander-Arnold, Bowen, Eze, Pickford, Wharton, Trafford, Saka.

Iceland: Valdimarsson, Bjarkason, Gretarsson, Ingason, Finnsson, Traustason, Johann Berg Gudmundsson, Arnar Haraldsson, Gudjohnsen, Thorsteinsson, Anderson.

Subs: Elias Olafsson, Patrik Gunnarsson, Sampsted, Thorarinsson, Brynjar Ingi Bjarnason, Arnor Sigurdsson, Fridriksson, Johannesson, Saevar Magnusson, Hlynsson, Tomasson, Pordarson.
