England v Spain | Women’s Euro 2022 quarter-final guide – The latest team news, results, odds and stats

England flew through the Euro 2022 group stages in record-breaking style, scoring 14 goals and conceding zero. That landed the Lionesses top spot in Group A, and puts them into the last eight. Up next is the quarter-final stage, as England look to take one step closer to bringing football home this summer.

When is England Women’s next game at Euro 2022?

England play Spain in the quarter-finals of Euro 2022, with the game kicking off at 20:00 on Wednesday, 20th July. The Lionesses are back in familiar surroundings for their quarter-final: the game with Spain takes place at Brighton’s Amex Stadium, the site of England’s record-breaking 8-0 win over Norway in the group stages.

The Lionesses won Group A and now face Spain who finished second in their group behind an impressive Germany team. Spain reached the quarter-final following a 4-1 win over Finland and a 1-0 win over Denmark, but they did lose 2-0 to Germany in between. 

Spain have only once reached the semi-finals of the women’s Euros, and the Lionesses have been racking up the goals so far. Will the home nation progress or will Spain spoil the party?

What are the odds England win their next game?

England are 21/20 to beat Spain and progress to the semi-finals of Euro 2022. The Lionesses have actually failed to beat Spain in their previous two games, including a 0-0 back in February. However, they’ve never lost against Spain in the previous seven meetings to take place on home soil.

England’s Beth Mead has been electric in front of goal, leading the Golden Boot race with five goals in her first three games, and is 11/2 to open the scoring against Spain. Alessia Russo netted twice from the bench in the Lionesses’ last game, and is 9/2 to score the last goal in this one.

Since Sarina Wiegman was appointed, England have scored 98 goals in just 17 matches – an average of almost six per game. If you fancy another goal-fest, then five or more goals in the match is 6/1. Another clean sheet for England – who are yet to concede a goal at Euro 2022 – is 7/4.

What is the latest England v Spain team news and injury news?

England surprisingly named an unchanged side for what was essentially a dead rubber with Northern Ireland, and are likely to do the same again with no fresh injuries for the Spain game. Lucy Bronze, Millie Bright, Lauren Hemp, Georgia Stanway and Ellen White were all given a breather in the second half and should be fresh for the quarter-final. Spain were hit with a double blow in the build-up to the tournament, with two key attackers, Jennifer Hermoso and Alexia Putellas, both ruled out with injuries. However, they have adapted well to the adversity, and have no new injury concerns heading into the quarter-final.

Sarina Wiegman missed the Northern Ireland game but should be back in the dugout for this one.

Who are England and Spain’s key players?

Ellen White brings goals, while Millie Bright is a colossus in defence. A versatile attack includes the devastating winger Lauren Hemp and the skilful Beth Mead, who is the tournament’s leading scorer with five goals already. Captain Leah Williamson keeps things calm in the middle and the experienced Lucy Bronze offers incredible athleticism and dynamism down the right.

Irene Paredes and Maria Leon have been excellent at the back for Spain, with Paredes a threat from set-pieces too. Aitana Bonmati pulls the strings in midfield as well as testing opposition defences with her runs into the box.

Who do England play next at Euro 2022?

Should England beat Spain in the quarter-final of Euro 2022, they will progress to a semi-final that will be held at Sheffield United’s Bramall Lane on Tuesday, 26th July. Their opponent in the semi-final could be Sweden, one of the pre-tournament favourites.

What are the odds on England to win Euro 2022?

England are 3/1 to win Euro 2022 with William Hill’s Top Price Guarantee, after flying through the group stages. In the race for the Golden Boot, the Lionesses’ Beth Mead is the odds-on favourite, with team-mate Ellen White 10/1. Alessia Russo has scored three times from the bench so far and is 16/1 to finish as the tournament’s top-scorer.

Who is the manager of England Women?

Sarina Wiegman is the Lionesses’ manager, and the team head into Euro 2022 yet to lose a game under her leadership. Wiegman has forged an impressive reputation for herself as a coach after racking up over 100 caps for Netherlands as a player. She was the first Dutch woman to coach at a male professional football club. In 2017, she led Netherlands’ women side to Euro 2017 glory on home soil. England will hope she can repeat that achievement this summer.
