Czechia have failed to win any of their last six competitive internationals inside 90 minutes

England were involved in an entertaining but ultimately fruitless UEFA Nations League opener against Spain which means the pressure is on when they head to Prague to take on Czechia in their second League A Group 3 match on Tuesday.
Individual errors ultimately cost Thomas Tuchel's side at Wembley on Saturday, as despite leading at half-time, they succumbed to a 3-2 defeat against the world champions.
Czechia were also beaten on home soil in their group opener, going down 2-1 against Croatia in what was Santi Denia's first match as head coach.
Team news
Captain Ladislav Krejci missed Czechia's defeat to Croatia with a calf injury and it is unclear whether the Wolves defender will be fit enough to return for Tuesday's match at the Fortuna Arena.
Lukas Provod and David Jurasek are among the names to have already withdrawn from the squad due to injury, while fitness concerns meant Tomas Soucek was not selected and key forward Patrik Schick announced his retirement from international football after the World Cup.
England were also hit with injury withdrawals prior to the Spain game, while Lewis Hall was an unused substitute at Wembley after picking up a knock in training.
If fit, the Newcastle left-back could be one of the players Tuchel opts to bring into his starting line-up, with Jordan Pickford and Morgan Rogers also pushing for recalls.

The stats
Czechia are without a win inside 90 minutes in their last six competitive internationals.
Both teams have scored in each of England's last six matches.
Only three members of the Czechia squad, Krejci (six), Adam Hlozek and Pavel Sulc (both five) have scored more than three international goals.
England were 1-0 winners when these teams last met during the group stages of Euro 2020 - Raheem Sterling scoring the only goal of that game.
The two teams also met in qualifying for that competition with England winning 5-0 at Wembley before the Czechs got their revenge with a 2-1 success back in Prague.

Prediction
England were aiming to banish the demons of their World Cup semi-final defeat to Argentina when they took on Spain on Saturday. Although they were unable to do that with a victory, they did show plenty of attacking intent and should prove too strong for a Czechia side in transition and having to make do without a number of key players.
It was at the other end where the Three Lions had problems against Spain, with individual mistakes costing them dear, and they have now gone six matches, which includes all their knockout games at the World Cup, without keeping a clean sheet.
That will give the Czechs hope of getting on the scoresheet in Prague, something they managed to do against Croatia thanks to Adam Karabec's third goal in his sixth international appearance, and he may carry much of the hosts’ attacking threat on Tuesday.
Creating chances is not a strength of the Czechs, who scored with one of their two efforts on target against Croatia in a match where they earned only one corner.
By contrast, England won six corners against Spain, double the tally of the world champions, and in a match where the visitors are expected to be on top for large spells, they should earn plenty more than the Czechs as well.
Score prediction: Czechia 1-3 England
