Key quotes
· 3 pulledI keep changing my mind about how this game might work out for England, and I am sure that will continue right up until kick-off.
I feel like the Lionesses will probably need to be a little conservative if they are to start the defence of their title with a win, but I can see them keeping a clean sheet if they get things right at the back.
Even in this week's friendly win over Jamaica, England showed some vulnerability at set-pieces, so they are going to have to tighten up and be sharper in those situations.
