The UEFA Nations League features another edition this weekend as England lock horns with Hungary at the Puskas Arena on Saturday, 4 June. England have an impressive squad at their disposal and are the favorites going into the game.

Hungary topped their group in League B last season and have secured promotion to the top flight of the UEFA Nations League. The Magyars edged Northern Ireland to a 1-0 victory in their previous outing and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.

England, on the other hand, have improved under Gareth Southgate but have often fallen short on the big stage. The Three Lions eased past Ivory Coast by a 3-0 margin in their previous game and will be confident ahead of this fixture.
