Lionesses target Spain win

England are confident going into the toughest international fixture but Spain's threat will be boosted by the return of Bonmatí. The task seems straightforward: avoid losing on Friday and England will book their spot at the Women's World Cup automatically. However, the reality is more complex. Taking on the world champions, Spain, is a daunting challenge that stands between the Lionesses and the 2027 World Cup in Brazil. A good result in Mallorca would not only secure England's place at the tournament but also demonstrate their ability to compete with the best, by containing the game's most skilled midfield, once again.
