England Betting Facts

Absent from the charts of major competitions since the 1966 World Cup, England hopes to live up to the event, 3 years after its 4th place obtained at the 2018 World Cup. For many observers, it is one of the favorites to lift the trophy at Wembley on July 11. On Sunday, the Three Lions started their tournament rather well by winning without necessarily shining against Croatia thanks to a goal scored shortly before the hour mark by Raheem Sterling (1-0).

Starting at the first English attacks against Croatia, Harry Kane did not break the screen, far from it, and even rather missed his entry into the tournament, unlike Raheem Sterling who therefore scored the only goal for his team on Sunday. In midfield, Leeds midfielder Philipps also delivered an excellent performance and could keep his place in the midfield alongside Mount. Not on the score sheet on Saturday, Manchester United defender Maguire could also return to the 11 after missing the last meeting.

Scotland Betting Facts

23 years after the World Cup in 1998 which remained its last participation in a major international tournament, Scotland would no doubt have hoped to enter this competition better. Not varnished defensively and lacking success in front of the opposing goal, it quite logically bowed (2-0) on Monday afternoon in its garden against a beautiful team from the Czech Republic. It had also qualified with difficulties for Euro 2021 after 2 penalty shootouts against Israel and Serbia in the play-offs. The selection led by Steve Clarke then missed promotion to League A in the Nations League.

Absent at the last minute against the Czech Republic, Arsenal defender Tierney, should return and start this match. Present in the list of 26, the substitute midfielder Fleck could also make his return after missing the match against the Czech Republic. Aligned on the left side of the defense, the Liverpool side Robertson did not miss his meeting even if he lacked realism on a good action at the end of the first period, missing a great opportunity to score. In midfield McTominay also played a serious match like the goalkeeper Marshall, far from being guilty of the anthology double score by Patrik Schick. During the qualifying campaign, midfielder McGinn finished as Scotland's top scorer with 7 goals. Not starting Monday surprisingly enough, Che Adams could start this time.
