England vs Costa Rica Team News
Costa Rica Team News
Costa Rica arrive in Orlando in a new phase under Fernando Batista, who replaced Miguel Herrera after the failed World Cup qualification campaign. Los Ticos missed the 2026 tournament after the decisive Concacaf window, so this friendly is about rebuilding habits rather than tournament rehearsal. Batista has to restore confidence while still giving senior players enough structure against an elite opponent.
Keylor Navas, Francisco Calvo, Juan Pablo Vargas, Orlando Galo, Brandon Aguilera, Manfred Ugalde and Joel Campbell remain important reference points for Costa Rica. The recent defeats to Brazil and IR Iran showed how quickly the back line can be exposed when midfield distances open. Batista needs a compact shape in Orlando because England can punish loose spacing through Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka and Harry Kane.
England Team News
England have named a 26-man World Cup squad under Thomas Tuchel, with Harry Kane leading the forward line and Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka giving the team a strong tournament spine. Tuchel’s selection also includes Ivan Toney and Ollie Watkins, so the Costa Rica match can help decide how England manage striker minutes before Group L begins.
The March friendlies left Tuchel with clear questions after a 1-1 draw with Uruguay and a 1-0 defeat to Japan. England’s Florida camp gives him one last chance to test the tempo, full-back roles and set-piece routines before Croatia, Ghana and Panama. The likely plan is to keep core players involved without exposing them to unnecessary late-match workload.
England vs Costa Rica H2H Record
England have one win and one draw from two verified senior meetings with Costa Rica. The 2014 World Cup meeting ended 0-0, while England won the 2018 friendly 2-0. That record gives England a clean edge before the Orlando match.
The H2H record also shows why Costa Rica cannot be dismissed. Los Ticos have already held England scoreless in a tournament setting, and Batista will want a similar low-risk defensive plan. Tuchel needs England to move the ball early enough to avoid another slow possession match.
