In Friday, the stars rested. Tonight, they are back in Sweden's starting eleven as expected.

This is how the women's football team starts in the European Championship qualifying match against England.

Sweden has made significant changes compared to the eleven that faced France on Friday (1–2).

In come several of the biggest blue and yellow names, including Magdalena Eriksson and Kosovare Asllani, who both sat out Friday's match as they risked suspension with another yellow card.

Hanna Lundkvist, Filippa Angeldahl, and Madelen Janogy are also playing from the start, unlike on Friday.

For Sweden's part, a win is required to secure a direct spot in the European Championship 2025. In the event of a draw or loss, the spot goes to England and Sweden will have to play a playoff in the fall to qualify for the championship.

Sweden's starting eleven (4–3–3): Zecira Musovic – Hanna Lundkvist, Linda Sembrant, Magdalena Eriksson, Jonna Andersson – Filippa Angeldahl, Kosovare Asllani, Julia Zigiotti Olme – Johanna Rytting Kaneryd, Madelen Janogy, Fridolina Rolfö.

The rest of the squad: Jennifer Falk (goalkeeper), Emma Holmgren (goalkeeper), Nathalie Björn, Hanna Glas, Josefine Rybrink, Anna Sandberg, Hanna Bennison, Evelyn Ijeh, Sofia Jakobsson, Rosa Kafaji, Elin Rubensson, Matilda Vinberg.

Outside the squad: My Cato, Felicia Schröder, Emma Kullberg.

England's starting eleven (4–3–3): Hannah Hampton – Lucy Bronze, Millie Bright, Leah Williamson, Jess Carter – Georgia Stanway, Ella Toone, Keira Walsh – Beath Mead, Alessia Russo, Lauren Hemp.

Sweden–England kicks off at 19.00.
