The above formation is a 4-2-3-1, which would allow England to have a strong defence while also being able to push forward in attack. Earps in goal would be supported by a back four of Bronze, Bright, Greenwood, and Daly. Williamson and Walsh would provide a strong base in midfield, with Mead, Kirby, and Hemp offering width and creativity. White would lead the line as the lone striker.
This formation and line-up gave England a good balance and allowed them to utilize the strengths of their players. The team had a mix of experienced and young players, with a blend of pace, skill, and physicality.

England are the favourites to win the match, with odds of 1/6 for them to come out on top. They are also second-favourites to win the tournament outright at 4/1.
England's recent form suggests they should be able to get their tournament off to a winning start. They have won 12 and drawn two of their 14 matches under Sarina Wiegman, and have beaten reigning European champions the Netherlands 5-1, Belgium 3-0 and Switzerland 4-0 in their three prep matches for this tournament.
Austria are underdogs for the match but are not expected to be pushovers.

Austria have scored in each of their last eight matches in all competitions, and there are odds of 5/4 for over 3.5 goals in the game. A more appealing wager could be the odds of 9/5 for an England win with both teams scoring.
