England vs Slovenia Prediction: Expert Analysis and Match Preview

Even though they failed to officially get a spot in the knockout stage, England have all but progressed after a 1-1 draw against Denmark at the end of round two.

They’ll play Slovenia on Tuesday in the final match of the group phase, hoping to finish the group phase with a top spot in the table with a win.

• Each of Slovenia’s four recent matches saw goals scored from both sides.
• England have had five wins and a draw in their most recent six matches against Slovenia.
• England had six wins and two draws in the eight Euro qualifying matches.
• Slovenia had only two wins in their six previous fixtures in competitions.

England disappointed fans by playing poorly in both games in the 2024 Euro to date.

They were particularly slack in a 1-1 draw with Denmark on Thursday afternoon.

The Three Lions are still at the top of Group C, and they can remain there even if they drop a point in the last match against Slovenia.

As for the Slovenians, they were unable to secure their first victory at the European Championships, conceding a goal in the 96th minute by Luka Jovic.

Matjaz Kek’s squad comes into this tie after two consecutive 1-1 draws. Will they be able to score another against one of the major favorites in the tournament?

England vs Slovenia Predicted Lineups and Team News

• The fans of England are enraged by Gareth Southgate, who struggles to dominate against weaker rivals with such a strong squad.
• Cole Palmer and Anthony Gordon have had stellar seasons for their respective clubs, but both are yet to play a minute in Southgate’s squad for the Euro.

England (4-5-1): Pickford – Walker, Stones, Guehi, Trippier – Alexander-Arnold, Rice, Saka, Bellingham, Foden – Kane

• Matjaz Kek does not have the same squad depth as his counterpart. We are likely to see Slovenia using the same 4-4-2 formation with Sesko and Sporar on the front line.

Slovenia (4-4-2): Oblak, Karnicnik, Drkusic, Bijol, Janza, Stojanovic, Gnezda Cerin, Elsnik, Mlakar, Sporar, Sesko

The Three Lions to Change Gears on Matchday 3

On the surface, Slovenia are the weakest team in Group C. However, they’ve managed to secure draws with Denmark and Serbia in their first two games.

The biggest issue for Matjaz Kek and his troops is that they’ll face a highly motivated English squad on Tuesday.

England must improve and lift spirits in the locker room following underwhelming performances in the first two games.

The Three Lions cannot afford to falter here regarding their final standings within the group to secure an advantage over their opponents in the knockout rounds.

With all respect to Slovenia’s efforts so far, we expect England to rebound and put on a show that demonstrates their strength.

The best bet is for England to win by more than two goals, with odds of 2.10.

Kane to Deliver Again

Harry Kane scored his first goal of the tournament during the 1-1 draw with Denmark on Thursday. This was his 13th major goal as Captain.

Kane is almost certain to start the match against Slovenia and will likely take his chances against Slovenia’s defense on Tuesday.

While recent England performances suggest another low-scoring game, we anticipate an impressive performance by one of the most talented teams in the tournament (at least on paper).

The Over 2.5 goals selection is priced at 1.90 odds, and we’ll choose to take it under these conditions.
