Rep. of Ireland vs England: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, odds, h2h
The post-Gareth Southgate era kicks off for the Three Lions after heartbreak in the final of Euro 2024, which brought to a close one of the national team’s most successful managerial tenures of all time.
However, it was not without its foibles and the fact that interim boss Lee Carsley takes charge for the first time in the second-tier of the Nations League highlights the work still required to get England to tournament-winner status.
A former Irish international who led the England Under-21s to European Championship glory a year ago, Birmingham-born Carsley has plenty of connection with both teams – just as does new Ireland manager Heimir Hallgrimsson.
The Icelandic coach famously knocked England out at Euro 2016 and arrives in Dublin looking to reverse his new team’s fortunes. In their last 13 matches, they have lost eight and won just three – two of which came against Gibraltar.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Republic of Ireland vs England is scheduled for a 5pm BST kick-off on Saturday September 7, 2024.
The match will take place at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium.

Republic of Ireland vs England team news
Hallgrimsson is without the injured Gavin Bazunu or Josh Cullen but Evan Ferguson has recovered from injury in time to be called up.
Callum Robinson, Alan Browne and Jayson Molumby have earned recalls under the new boss while Leicester winger Kasey McAteer is in line for a debut after switching his international allegiance from England.
Carsley has called up Under-21 favourites Noni Madueke, Morgan Gibbs-White, Angel Gomes and Tino Livramento for potential senior bows.
Rico Lewis, Jack Grealish and Levi Colwill also earned recalls as the interim boss left Adam Wharton, Kyle Walker, James Maddison and the recently-retired Kieran Trippier out.
Republic of Ireland vs England prediction
The Boys in Green have been in rotten form for some time, but the new manager bounce should make things a little more difficult for England.
Still, the Three Lions will have the overwhelming majority of the talent out on the pitch and the injection of fresh energy from the management and young players could make for a promising honeymoon under Carsley.
Head to head (h2h) history and results
The Three Lions’ 3-0 win in a 2020 friendly ended a run of six consecutive draws between these teams, dating back to a 1-0 Irish win at Euro 1988.
