"This may only be a friendly, and not part of the other World Cup qualifiers taking place this international break, but then again the term 'friendly' can never really apply to this match. Passions run high in the rivalry between these two UK nations, even if England are historically and currently the far greater footballing force. In fact, so strong are Thomas Tuchel's Three Lions that Wales boss Craig Bellamy quipped that this match-up wouldn't be allowed were it a boxing contest."
"Fans in both England and Wales can watch the game through ITV, as in the rest of the UK. ITV 1 is the channel for terrestrial TV viewers, while ITVX is the platform for those streaming online. You can watch England vs Wales for free on both ITV 1 and ITVX, which requires a registration but is free to use. Away from home right now? A good VPN such as NordVPN will unblock your usual streaming services even while you're abroad"
The match takes place on Thursday 9 October 2025, kick-off 7.45pm BST / 2.45pm ET at Wembley, London. Television coverage lists BBC Two and BBC Scotland with a free stream on BBC iPlayer in the UK. ITV1 and ITVX are also reported as the terrestrial and online platforms offering free access across the UK. A VPN such as NordVPN is suggested to unblock streams when abroad. The fixture is a non-qualifier friendly but carries intense rivalry and high passions. England are presented as the stronger side under Thomas Tuchel. Wales boss Craig Bellamy quipped the matchup would not be allowed in boxing. Both squads aim to build momentum ahead of upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
