The England football squad arrived in Volgograd ahead of their first World Cup Group D match against Tunisia on Monday.
Gareth Southgate's Three Lions are one of the favourites in this World Cup and are expected to put up a great show against a team who have not made it to the tournament since 2006.
England have appeared in 14 World Cups, including the last five. Their best performance was 1966, on home soil, when they won the tournament, beating West Germany 4-2 (after extra time).
Their best performance since that triumph was in 1990 when they lost on penalties in the semi-final to West Germany.
They reached the quarter-finals in 2002 and 2006 but went out at the group stage in 2014.
The team relies on players Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling.
Kane is the striker and will be central to England's hopes in Russia as he has something to prove after looking exhausted throughout the 2016 European Championship finals.
His 12 goals in 23 appearances for his country have shown he can translate his prolific form for Tottenham Hotspur to the international stage and with his club mate Dele Alli likely to play behind him, the Spurs link could be crucial.
Winger Raheem Sterling has improved his all-round game significantly under Pep Guardiola at Manchester City and his pace, skill and ability to go past defenders could provide the moments of inspiration England will need in a squad otherwise short of stardust.
Tunisia, on the other hand, are appearing in the World Cup for the fifth time, a run which started in Argentina in 1978, but the North Africans have not made it to a tournament since 2006.
After beating Mexico 3-1 in their opening game in 1978, the Tunisians have not won another World Cup finals match and have never made it beyond the first round.
In 2002, they drew 1-1 with Belgium, whom they will face again in Group G. In 1998, they lost 2-0 to England, whom they will play in their opening game in Russia.
The team relies on players Wahbi Khazri, Anice Badri and Syam Ben Youssef.
Tunisia went unbeaten in their World Cup qualifying campaign but had to endure a nervy finish when they drew 0-0 with strugglers Libya to edge out the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The North Africans have risen up FIFA's rankings to their highest ever 14th place, boosted by friendly wins over fellow qualifiers Iran and Costa Rica.
