England vs Wales preview

England and Wales meet at Wembley on Thursday night in what promises to be one of those classic ‘not-so-friendly friendlies’.

While there’s the usual pride and bragging rights at stake, this contest also serves a more practical purpose for the Three Lions.

It gives manager Thomas Tuchel a valuable opportunity to assess his squad ahead of next week’s crucial World Cup qualifier against Latvia.

And perhaps more significantly, it’s a chance for Tuchel to quieten some of the critics following a number of eyebrow-raising omissions from the latest squad.

The absence of Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden, Jack Grealish and Adam Wharton hasn’t gone down too well with supporters. So a commanding performance and a convincing win would go a long way in justifying those decisions.

As for World Cup qualification, England’s path appears all but certain.

Tuchel’s side have breezed through their opening five qualifiers, winning all five without conceding a single goal. They will seal their spot at next summer’s finals with victory in Latvia – provided Serbia fail to win both of their remaining fixtures against Albania and Andorra.

Wales, meanwhile, have lost just two of their 12 matches under Craig Bellamy, a run that reflects the steady progress made under his leadership.

However, their focus may understandably be tilted toward next week’s crunch clash with Belgium in Cardiff. A win there is vital if Wales are to keep their hopes alive of topping Group J and securing automatic qualification.

England vs Wales preview betting tips and predictions

Home goals

I’m backing England to hit over 2.5 goals in Thursday night’s clash with Wales – available at 7/5 with William Hill.

With World Cup spots still very much up for grabs, expect the Three Lions to come out firing. There’s no shortage of attacking talent waiting in the wings, and after their emphatic 5-0 win over Serbia last time out, Tuchel’s men should be in the mood to do some damage.

Tuchel, under scrutiny following some surprise squad omissions, will be eager to maintain momentum and make a statement.

Meanwhile, Wales boss Craig Bellamy may look to rotate in the latter stages, mindful of next week’s qualifier against Belgium. If that happens, England could find even more space to exploit as the match wears on.

At the double

In for a penny…

If we’re tipping England to put a few past a Wales side with their priorities elsewhere, then it makes perfect sense to back Harry Kane to be at the heart of it.

The Bayern Munich striker is in the form of his life, with a staggering 18 goals in just 10 appearances this season – including 2+ goals on seven occasions.

Kane has also found the net in five of the six games since Thomas Tuchel took charge of the national side, and he’ll fancy adding to that record on Thursday night.
