Thomas Tuchel will make his debut for the English national team in the match against Albania to be played at Wembley, a meeting within the framework of the World Cup qualifiers.
The German who has taken charge of the 'Three Lions' will have to play the first two matches at home, one against Albania and the other against Latvia.
England will be hoping to make the perfect start under their new manager.
It's a streak that has lasted 43 years, since 1982 when Sir Bobby Robson drew 1-1 with Denmark in his first match in charge of the team.
There has only been one time when an England manager has lost their first match, and that was Sir Alf Ramsey, whose team was defeated by France in 1963.
Tuchel will be hoping to continue his winning streak with England. He will be confident of a winning start in World Cup qualifiers as well, as Albania are 65th in the FIFA rankings, while the Three Lions are fourth.
England have also never lost to Albania before, winning all six of their meetings to date.
England are unbeaten in their last 31 FIFA World Cup qualifying matches (W23 D8), the longest continuous run of any European nation. Only once have the Three Lions lost their first qualifying match, losing 1-0 to Germany in October 2000 in their last match at the old Wembley.
Albania have scored just one goal in six meetings with England. The goal was scored by Altin Rraklli, in the match played in March 2001, where Albania lost 3-1.
