Due to hosting the tournament, the Lionesses are not required to qualify for the competition.

They will instead use international breaks to experiment and prepare for the groundbreaking tournament on home soil.

Boss Phil Neville will hope to lift his team’s spirits following a third successive semi-final defeat in a major tournament.

The Lionesses captured the hearts of the nation in the 2019 World Cup and will be determined to go one step further when the Euros come to British soil.

Belgium didn’t qualify for the World Cup, meaning their most recent games were both friendlies.

They were hammered 6-0 by the USWNT before steamrolling to a 6-1 victory over Thailand.
