England face their first pre-Women's Euros test on Thursday when they take on Belgium at Molineux.
Sarina Wiegman named her final 23-player squad for the upcoming tournament on Wednesday and this week's friendly is a chance for fans to see the squad in action.
Former captain Steph Houghton will not feature this summer, having struggled with an Achilles problem since January, while Chelsea striker Fran Kirby and Man City forward Chloe Kelly have both overcome respective injury troubles to take their place in Wiegman's squad.

The match against Belgium - who will also feature at Euro 2022 - is the first of three friendlies before England kick off their home tournament against Austria at Old Trafford on July 6.
The Lionesses also face The Netherlands at Elland Road on June 24 before travelling to Switzerland for their concluding warm-up clash on June 30. Following the fixture in Zurich, the Lionesses will return to St George's Park to put the finishing touches on preparations.
Will we have any indications on the starting XI against Austria?
Wiegman probably already has a keen idea of who she will start at Old Trafford on July 6 - but these friendlies will give her the chance to experiment, tinker and see who might stake their claim.
All three goalkeepers - Mary Earps, Ellie Roebuck and Hannah Hampton - are likely to feature during the friendlies, and expect to see each of the named 23 players given some minutes.
One of the most important aspects of these friendlies is testing England against better opposition. Despite a glut of goals under Wiegman so far, they have come against the likes of Latvia, North Macedonia and Luxembourg.
There were already positive signs during the Arnold Clark Cup in March - an invitational tournament organised by the FA - which was won by the Lionesses ahead of Olympic gold medallists Canada, Euro 2022 favourites Spain and international powerhouse Germany.
England are yet to lose a match under Wiegman - drawing just twice, although both in the Arnold Clark Cup - and it will be important to maintain that momentum heading into these matches. The Lionesses will be aiming for three victories but equally and perhaps more importantly, cohesive performances.
What about Belgium Women?
Belgium have made steady improvement over the last decade or so. This summer represents their second major tournament appearance and their second successive European Championships.
The Red Flames finished third in their Euro 2017 group behind eventual champions The Netherlands and Denmark, and will be in a group with France, Italy and Iceland this time around.
The last time the two sides played each other was a 3-3 friendly draw in August 2019. England had led 2-0, but needed a late Nikita Parris penalty to secure the draw in a rocky patch of form after finishing fourth at that summer's World Cup.
Much like England, Belgium head into Thursday's friendly and the Euros with plenty of experience in their ranks. Janice Cayman has 124 international caps and is second in the all-time scorers' list (47) behind Tessa Wullaert, who has scored 65 goals in 106 caps.
It says a lot about the quality of Belgium's squad that seven of their 10 all-time cap holders are current players, with two more having retired in the last three years.
Much of their improvement too has come under long-time manager Ives Serneels, who has coached the national team since 2011. He will be hoping to lead the Red Flames into the knockout rounds for the first time in their history this summer.
