England vs Japan Competition – International Friendly Stadium: Wembley Stadium Date: 31st March 2026 Kick-off time – 19:45 GMT
England host Japan at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday evening in an international friendly that brings together two of the World Cup’s most anticipated nations, with kick-off at 19:45 GMT.
England head into this game having drawn their most recent outing — a 1-1 home draw with Uruguay on March 27, 2026. Prior to that, they won 2-0 away at Albania in World Cup qualifying on November 16, 2025. Earlier in this run, a 2-0 home win over Serbia in qualifying, a 5-0 win away at Latvia, and a 3-0 home win over Wales in a friendly complete a sequence of four wins and one draw — an England side whose qualifying campaign has been faultless but who were pegged back by Uruguay days ago. This is the kind of test the Wembley crowd will relish.
Japan arrive in excellent form across all their recent fixtures. Their most recent result was a 1-0 win away at Scotland in a friendly on March 28, 2026. Prior to that, they won 3-0 at home against Bolivia on November 18, 2025 and 2-0 at home over Ghana on November 14. Earlier in this run, a 3-2 home win over Brazil and a 2-2 home draw with Paraguay complete a sequence of four wins and one draw — a Japan side delivering results against quality opposition and arriving in London with genuine confidence. Their 3-2 home win over Brazil in October is the standout result in this recent run.
The head-to-head record between these nations is limited to two meetings, with England holding the edge. England won 2-1 away at Japan in a friendly in May 2010, while the sides drew 1-1 at home in England in June 2004.
