It's already do-or-die for England's Lionesses in their quest to retain their European Championships crown, as they take on the Netherlands in Zurich.
Matchday one saw a bruising 2-1 defeat to France, which exposed the form, injury and absentee issues that have plagued the Lionesses in recent times.
It doesn't get any easier for Sarina Wiegman's side as they take on a Dutch side coming off a dominant 3-0 victory over Wales.
Let's take a look at all the latest betting and our expert predictions on this one as we head for a huge day for England's hopes.

England vs. France prediction, tips, bet builder and odds
According to Paddy Power, the Lionesses are favourites at 4/5 for this one, with the Dutch back at 11/4. The draw is at 21/10. Here's our take on the best value to be had.
Odds are correct with the firms listed at time of publish.
England to win and Both Teams To Score: 11/4 (Betway)
This has all the makings of a classic as the Group of Death brings us yet another heavyweight clash.
England know a win would change the entire complexion of their tournament, and will push early on.
We think the win will come, but with the Dutch boasting lots of attacking talent and talisman Vivianne Miedema in fine form, among others, expect chances at both ends.
Alessia Russo to score at any time: 2/1 (Betway)
It feels a rather obvious but if England are to win then Russo has to fire. These are decent odds given the form she was in heading into the tournament, and so there's value to be had here, potentially as part of a bet builder.
Russo scored in both the loss to Spain and win over Jamaica, and finished the club season in stunning fashion, winning the Champions League with Arsenal.
Facing off against Gunners team-mate Daphne van Domselaar, she will be even more motivated to get her Euros campaign up and running.

England vs. Netherlands predicted lineups, team news
Sarina Wiegman will surely be tempted to make a few changes to the side that fell to the French, and there could well be places in the lineup for Niamh Charles and Grace Clinton.
Jess Carter and Georgia Stanway could be the unlucky two to drop out, but needs must with the Lionesses requiring a spark.
- England predicted XI (4-2-3-1, right to left): Hampton (GK) - Bronze, Williamson, Greenwood, Charles - Walsh, Clinton - Mead, James Hemp - Russo
The Dutch, on the other hand, don't need to make any drastic changes, and it's likely the same side that easily saw off the Welsh plays from the start again here against another British nation.
- Netherlands predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Van Domselaar (GK) - Casparij, Janssen, Buurman, Brugts - Groenen, Van de Donk, Kaptein - Pelova, Roord, Miedema
