The Three Lions have proved their credentials in major tournaments over the past few years.
A World Cup 2018 semi-final was followed by heartbreak in the final of the European Championships last summer – narrowly losing to Italy on penalties.
England sailed through the qualification process unbeaten, finishing top of Group I with 26 points from a possible 30.
They also boasted the highest goal tally with 39 and conceded just three in 10 fixtures.
Though high in the betting market, England trail the usual suspects in France and Brazil.
Reigning World Champions France are frontrunners at 11/2 to defend their crown.
The French have won it twice since the competition was established in 1930 with their last coming courtesy of a 4-2 win over Croatia in Moscow.
Brazil are priced at 6/1 having been the first South American team to qualify for Qatar 2022.
