While they will target to begin their march back from the top in the 2024/25 UEFA Nations League, England will face Finland in their next match scheduled for Sunday.
The Three Lions who walloped Finland 2-0 on match day 2 lost to Greece in their last Nations League match by a lone goal; a stain on the English team’s defensive record from the match's dying minutes.
At the same time, Finland emerged as the third team having been beaten in the third game of the competition after a 2-1 loss to Ireland in their last match.

Suspended: None
Finland, meanwhile, has no new injury concerns from their last game, though midfielder Kaan Kairinen was ruled out earlier due to injury. Their all-time leading scorer Teemu Pukki could return to lead the attack, potentially replacing Joel Pohjanpalo as the lone striker.

Finland vs England Prediction
These teams have only met once in this Nations League edition, where England triumphed 2-0 at home. Despite a disappointing late loss to Greece, England’s quality should see them bounce back with a solid win against a struggling Finland side.
