England Women and Germany Women trade tackles in a friendly at the Wembley on Friday. The hosts were last in action in a goalless draw at Sweden in their final qualification game for the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 in June.
The stalemate saw the Lionnesses book their spot to defend their title in Switzerland as runners-up in the group, behind France. Germany, meanwhile, claimed a 1-0 win over Spain in the third-place Olympic Women's Football playoff game in August.
Giulia Gwinn's 69th-minute penalty helped DFB-Frauenteam claim a fourth Olympic Bronze medal after Alexia Putellas had missed a penalty deep into injury time for Spain.
Christian Wück's side have another friendly lined up against Australia next week, while England take on South Africa.

England Women vs Germany Women Prediction
Both sides have booked their spots in next year's Euro, so they will use the time till July 2025 to prepare for the tournament. England are the defending champions but didn't have a straightforward qualification campaign to defend their title.
Germany, meanwhile, have had hit something of a nadir in the last few years, culminating in their disappointing group stage exit in the Women's World Cup last year. The two-time world champions gave a good account of themselves at the Olympics and made light work of their Euro qualification group.
The Germans have a better record in this fixture and will look to enact revenge for their loss in the 2022 Women's Euro final. However, England have home advantage in their favour, and a raucous Wembley crowd could inspire the Lionesses to a narrow win.
