Bronze best-placed to help fire England to win over Scots

England's Lionesses begin their campaign at the Women's Euro 2017 with a potentially tough match against neighbours Scotland.

England have won 21 of their 25 meetings but the Scots will be determined to cause an upset at double-figure odds.

Anna Signeul's Scots are making their first appearance in a major tournament and will have to do without one of their most gifted players in Kim Little, who ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament in May.

There is a real sense that Mark Sampson's England can build on their third-place finish in the 2015 Women's World Cup when a Fara Williams penalty in extra-time helped England beat Germany for the first time in their history.

Talented right-back Lucy Bronze looks well placed to contribute to an England victory having scored twice in Canada. Expect her to be in top form again and she looks great each-way first-scorer value.

The earlier kick-off is another derby between Portugal and Spain. The sides had never faced each other until they were drawn together in qualifying for this tournament. Spain won both of their meetings and should be in control again.
