England seek perfect start in World Cup qualifying against Andorra
England will seek to maintain a perfect start to World Cup qualifying when they face Andorra on Saturday evening, with kickoff scheduled for 5pm BST. The fixture, the fourth qualifying match for both sides in Group K, is widely reported to be at Villa Park in Birmingham, though a small number of accounts have listed Wembley or St Andrews as the venue. The match will be shown live on ITV, with coverage beginning at 4pm and a stream available on ITVX.
Thomas Tuchel has said he will name his strongest available side, confirming that captain Harry Kane will start and dismissing suggestions he will rest key players ahead of Tuesday's trip to Serbia. Tuchel said the squad will "start with the team that we trust and the best team possible" and added that the camp is condensed so "everything that counts is today and tomorrow." He also acknowledged problems from the first meeting with Andorra, admitting "I did not like the structure against Andorra" and promising adjustments to break down the visitors' defensive block.
