Argentina is just two wins away from becoming just the third team ever to win back-to-back World Cup titles, crowning Lionel Messi’s legacy with a cherry it most definitely doesn’t need. But it won’t be easy; the Albiceleste will have to take down England in today’s 3 p.m. ET semifinal in Atlanta and then Spain in the final on Sunday in New York/New Jersey. The loser will take on France on Saturday in Miami with a bronze medal on the line.

Both teams’ lineups are now set for the pivotal clash. Lionel Scaloni has announced the 11 men who will represent Argentina, while Thomas Tuchel has done the same for the Three Lions.

England is a +165 favorite to win in regular time at DraftKings Sportsbook (-120 to advance to the final), and the Albiceleste are +205 (+100 to advance). There are +185 odds that the match will require extra time.
