Pick of the week: UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 Qualifier – England v Republic Of Ireland

Friday 12 July, 7.30pm, ITV1 HD (CH 103)

Amid the fervour of the men’s Euros, don’t miss this crucial qualifying match for the next edition of the women’s version (you know, the one where England are actually defending champions…). This campaign has been an up-and-down one for the Lionesses: they started with a comfortable win against Ireland in Dublin, but drew at home to Sweden and then lost to France, before rallying to beat the French away. So a win at Carrow Road on Friday is crucial if they’re to stay in contention for the two automatic qualifying slots in the group.

England will be missing a couple of players including Lauren James, but key defensive duo Leah Williamson and Millie Bright are now fully recovered from injury, while Mary Earps – newly signed by Paris St-Germain – is expected to be fit to start in goal. Ireland are captained by Arsenal’s Katie McCabe, a fierce competitor who’ll be determined to make her mark on the game, but England should have enough quality to win. Then it’s on to Gothenburg on Tuesday for another vital clash.
