Latvia vs England TV channel and free live stream details for World Cup qualifier

Thomas Tuchel is on the brink of leading England to their first World Cup qualification under his management, with a victory over Latvia on Tuesday night all that is required. The Three Lions are set to face off against Latvia at the Daugava Stadium, with a spot in the 2026 World Cup hanging in the balance.

Following Albania's narrow 1-0 triumph over Serbia on Saturday, they currently sit second to England in Group K with 11 points. However, England have been flawless so far, boasting five victories from five matches and sitting comfortably at the top of the table with 15 points and a game still in hand. This means that a win against Latvia would give Tuchel's squad a seven-point lead over their closest competitors, Albania, effectively securing their ticket to the 2026 World Cup.

However, it won't be a walk in the park, with a lengthy 1,440-mile journey and a determined Latvian team standing between them and their World Cup dreams. Here, Express Football provides all the essential details for the upcoming match, including kick-off time, where to watch the game live, and potential starters for England.

When does Latvia vs England kick off?

The Three Lions will face Latvia on Tuesday evening, with the match set to kick off at 7:45pm. The encounter will take place at Latvia's Daugava Stadium, which has a capacity of 10,461.

This marks England's inaugural visit to the national stadium in Riga, with their only previous meeting with Latvia taking place at Wembley in March 2025. England won 3-0 in that encounter thanks to goals from Reece James, Harry Kane, and Eberechi Eze.
