The ticker tape from Manchester City's treble parade has just about been swept up but already the focus shifts back to international football, with England back in action on Friday evening.

Gareth Southgate's side are in the driving seat in Euro 2024 Qualifying Group C – sitting top after beating Ukraine and Italy, their stiffest competition, back in March. They travel to face Malta, the group's lowest-ranked side, on Friday evening before hosting North Macedonia at Old Trafford the other side of the weekend.

There is a new face in the England squad in Crystal Palace's Ebere Eze, who could be on course for his international debut, while the Man City contingent joined up with the group on Tuesday so should be ready to go if called upon.

Malta already have a win under their belt this month, beating Luxembourg 1-0 in a friendly last week, but the visitors have won all five previous meetings between the two sides and anything other than a sixth on Friday will be considered a disappointment.

Last summer, England suffered two embarrassing defeats at the hands of Hungary, with the effects of a long season all too clear to see in the Three Lions ranks, and Southgate will want his side to be much more convincing 12 months on.
