England return to UEFA Nations League action tonight against Belgium hoping to get back to winning ways after suffering defeat away to Netherlands in their last fixture.

Sarina Wiegman's Lionesses made the perfect start to the Nations League campaign with a 2-1 win over near neighbours Scotland at the Stadium Of Light in their opening game but came unstuck in the Dutch city of Utrecht despite a superb Alessia Russo strike.

It's sure to be an intriguing few months for the Lionesses who have looked far from their free flowing selves since their run to the World Cup final in August, while Belgium were only denied a second Nations League by a last minute Sophie Howard header for Scotland.

Group A of the Nations League is wide open currently with two of the four teams sitting on three points, while Belgium top the group on four points. However, should England navigate this week's double header with Belgium then they could open a gap at the top of their group table.

The game is set to be close to a sell out at Leicester City's King Power Stadium, with the Lionesses moving away from Wembley for the second time this year following a sold out clash at Sunderland's Stadium Of Light in September.
