England have arrived for their date with destiny as they gear up for their first Women’s Euro 2022 knockout match against Spain.

The Lionesses have reached the quarter-finals and sit just 180 minutes away from a showpiece final at Wembley at the end of July.

Beth Mead is the top scorer in the competition so far with five strikes to her name in just three matches. She has been a revelation and will be determined to maintain her hot streak.

Standing in England’s way are Spain, who sit one place above the host nation in the FIFA World Rankings and will feel confident heading into this one.

Spain toppled Scandinavian duo Denmark and Finland in the group stages, but fell short against Germany in their biggest clash of the tournament so far.

Our prediction: England v Spain

England demolished their group’s closest rivals, Norway, with an 8-0 hammering and will not fear anyone remaining in this competition.

This doesn’t mean that their route to the final is a straightforward one. Spain will provide stern opposition for the Lionesses. This is both teams’ toughest match of the tournament so far.

However, England have form, momentum, sky-high confidence, increasing support from across the nation as well as superb backing inside stadiums and, to put it bluntly, Beth Mead.

She has been the creative and goalscoring lynchpin in this team so far and can be expected to inspire her side to another victory tonight.

Our prediction: England 3-1 Spain (16/1 at Bet365)
