The much-anticipated 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand is here with England's Lionesses one of the teams favoured to lift the highly coveted football World Cup trophy.

Led by coach Sarina Wiegman and captain Millie Bright, England won their first major title last year after defeating two-time world champions Germany in the final of the European Championships. They later proved their form was no fluke after winning the 2023 Women's Finalissima over Brazil.

Though hit by injury with notable names including Leah Williamson out of action, the squad heading to the World Cup remains a healthy blend of experience and youth.

The Lionesses, in Group D for the tournament, will begin their World Cup campaign against debutantes Haiti before taking Denmark and the People's Republic of China.
