The Lee Carsley era as interim head coach of the English national team has gotten off a good start by kicking off Nations League play with a 2-0 victory over Ireland. Declan Rice and Jack Grealish found the back of the net for the Three Lions and they'll expect another straightforward victory hosting Finland at home. After falling to Greece, Finland will want a better performance in this tie but that's easier said than done going up against England especially when this is an audition for the permanent role.

Storylines

England: Morgan Gibbs-White and Angel Gomes were able to make their England debuts against Ireland leaving Noni Madueke and Tino Livramento as the only players in the squad without a senior national team cap. With Carsley being able to rotate due to having such a deep squad, that could change on Tuesday. England will look for another clean performance in front of their home fans.

Finland: Defense used to be Finland's strength, but in recent matches that's fading. They've allowed nine goals in their last three matches ahead of facing a high-powered England attack. Markku Kanerva will need his side to get back to basics because England can struggle to break down stout defenses, but if Finland beat themselves, it will be a long tie.

Prediction

England will find their breakthrough early and the goals won't stop flowing from there. Pick: England 3, Finland 0
