England U21 approach the final against Spain full of confidence, having scored 10 goals in five games at the tournament, with goalkeeper James Trafford yet to concede a single goal either. Trafford, who is being linked with a £20m move to Burnley, will almost certainly start vs Spain and will be looking for yet another clean sheet to help propel the youthful Lions to the trophy.
In the group stages, England all three games 2-0, comfortably dispatching Czech Republic, Germany and Israel. Then, in the quarter-finals against Portugal on Sunday, Anthony Gordon bagged the only goal of the game to send England through to the semis.
There they faced group opponents Israel, but Gordon and Co. were even more convincing in the final four, running out 3-0 winners thanks to goals from Morgan Gibbs-White, Cole Palmer and Cameron Archer.
Emile Smith Rowe, Jacob Ramsey and Harvey Elliott have also notched for the U21s in Georgia, highlighting the strength in depth Lee Carsley has at his disposal. The former Everton midfielder has handed 20 of his 23 players starts in the U21 Euros, underlining the quality of the squad.

Manchester City defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis has captained the side, with Levi Colwill of Chelsea alongside him at centre-back. Both will need to be on top form to stop Spain in the final, who so far have plundered 13 goals in their five games, conceding just four times in the process.
Braga striker Abel Ruiz and Manchester City's Sergio Gomez are joint-top scorers in the tournament, and will look to cause more damage in the final. A 5-1 win against Ukraine in the semi-finals, a side which contains the likes of Mykhalo Mudryk from Chelsea, underlines the quality in Spain's team.
It is crucial, therefore, that England are on top form at the Adjarabet Arena.
Kick off is at 5pm BST on Saturday.
