England set to discover UEFA Nations League semi-final opponents

England are set to discover their semi-final opponents in next summer's UEFA Nations League as Gareth Southgate and his squad aim for their first major trophy since 1966.

The Three Lions secured their spot in the inaugural Nations League finals when they defeated Croatia 2-1 at Wembley last month, topping a challenging group that also included Spain.

Now they will learn who, out of hosts Portugal, Holland or Switzerland, they will face in the semi-finals next June.

The draw will take place at the Sherbourne Hotel in Dublin at 1.30pm UK time on Monday afternoon. Sportsmail will bring you the outcome as soon as it happens.

The semi-final tie that involves Portugal will be played on Wednesday June 5, 2019, with the other semi-final the following day.

The final and the third-place play-off matches are scheduled for Sunday June 9 as the first-ever Nations League champion is crowned.

Portugal has been appointed the host for the competition's climax, with their Football Federation proposing the Estadio do Dragao in Porto and the Estadio D. Afonso Henriques in nearby Guimaraes as the venues.

Southgate's team, who reached the semi-finals of the World Cup during a successful 2018, will be confident of lifting the trophy.

Having taken just one point from their opening two Nations League group fixtures, they defeated Spain 3-2 in Sevilla before a dramatic late turnaround saw them overcome Croatia.

Switzerland and Holland also qualified in similarly dramatic circumstances. The Swiss were two goals down against Belgium in their decisive final match before storming back to win 5-2.

Meanwhile, two late goals away to Germany saw the Dutch reach the Nations League finals at the expense of world champions France.

Portugal topped their group ahead of Italy and Poland to book their spot in the final four.
