FIFA World Cup 2022 England vs Iran: Match timing, live stream, team lineups, and other details

On Sunday, the FIFA World Cup 2022 officially started as hosts Qatar faced Ecuador and lost 2-0. However, football enthusiasts have been anticipating some scrumptious moments today as England's World Cup campaign will get started against Iran in Doha at the Khalifa International Stadium.

By not making any mistakes against Iran in their Group B opener on Monday, England will be attempting to demonstrate their seriousness about competing at this year's World Cup.

While England lost the UEFA EURO 2020 final and will be seeking a victorious trajectory at the FIFA World Cup, Iran is attempting to take advantage of England's recent slump in form in 2022 and is aiming for a shocking qualification from Group B in their third straight World Cup final.


However, England will be too aware of the pressure they would face if they lost to Iran in their Group B opener, so Gareth Southgate will take no chances by attempting to get all three points by selecting his strongest team on Monday.

On the other hand, Iran will be expecting that their previous experience playing in such hot conditions will help them in this match, but the fact that they don't have many players who play in Europe's top leagues might be their undoing against the excellent English team.
