It will come as no surprise that Tuesday’s front pages continue with their coverage of the upcoming UK general election. UK voters head to the polls on Thursday to elect a new party into power, with all opinion polls heavily suggesting a Labour government will be ushered into No 10.

England’s last-16 match also features – with images of Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane on most front pages.
Elsewhere, the papers also leave room for the upcoming UK general election – to be held on Thursday.
