The new era of the Three Lions begins on Friday and ITV will be covering both matches on ITV1 and ITVX.

England take on Albania at Wembley on Friday in their first game under Thomas Tuchel. Latvia are their visitors on Monday night as they complete a double-header to get World Cup qualifying underway.

ITV have drafted in their top team to bring us all the coverage.

England vs Albania

Friday night's match against Albania is ITV's first chance to cast an eye over Tuchel's England and they've lined up their headline talents for the occasion.

Mark Pougatch hosts the action, joined by a punditry super-team of Ian Wright and Roy Keane.

ITV regulars Sam Matterface and Lee Dixon will be on hand to talk us through the action from the commentary gantry.

We'll be treated to the same ITV team when Latvia visit Wembley on Monday.

Mark Pougatch will anchor the coverage alongside Ian Wright and Roy Keane once more, while Sam Matterface and Lee Dixon will again handle commentary duty.

We expect and hope to see the legendary Gabriel Clarke on hand to bring us on-the-ground reports too.
