• Gareth Southgate’s side will also face Czech Republic•
Turkey and Switzerland make up Wales’s groupEngland have the chance to gain some revenge for their 2018
World Cup semi-final defeat against Croatia in their opening game of Euro 2020 after Gareth Southgate’s side were handed a favourable draw for next summer’s tournament, although Wales face a tricky task to progress after being paired with Turkey,
Italy and Switzerland.
Already assured of playing all of their Group D matches at Wembley due to the unique format of the tournament that will see 12 cities across Europe play host,
England were also drawn with Czech Republic and the winners of play-off path C – one of
Scotland, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia or Norway. None of those should particularly worry Southgate, whose side beat Croatia 2-1 at Wembley during the Nations League last year and also put five past the Czechs during qualifying on the way to topping their qualifying group, although they did suffer their first qualifying defeat for almost a decade against Jaroslav Silhavy’s side in Prague last month.
