Written by Oluwaseun Oyediji

In June, England will feature a double header in Barcelona, with the Lionesses set to compete against Spain in the Nations League, followed by the Three Lions facing Andorra.

More Details

The Lionesses will travel to Barcelona to challenge Spain, with the match scheduled to take place at the RCDE Stadium, home of La Liga’s Espanyol.

The Three Lions will also play at this venue.

The UEFA Women’s Nations League match is scheduled for Tuesday, June 3, 2025.

This event follows a recent encounter where Sarina Wiegman’s team narrowly triumphed over the reigning world champions with a 1-0 victory at Wembley, thanks to a goal from Jess Park.

Just a few days later, on June 7, England’s men’s team, under the leadership of Thomas Tuchel, will compete against Andorra at the same stadium in a crucial qualifier for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Initially planned to be held in Andorra, UEFA has decided to move the match to the RCDE Stadium due to logistical challenges.

This will be Tuchel’s first away match since taking over, following two strong home wins against Latvia and Albania last month.

The men’s team will not be able to utilize Wembley for their next two home games, as the venue is reserved for a series of concerts, including several performances by Coldplay.

Instead, England will host Senegal in a friendly match on Monday, June 10, at the City Ground, home of Nottingham Forest.

The return match against Andorra is scheduled for September 6 at Villa Park.

After their match against Spain, Wiegman’s Lionesses will head to Switzerland for Euro 2025, while Tuchel’s Three Lions will focus on achieving success at the upcoming World Cup.
