England – Slovakia Prediction

The way England have played can’t be called brilliant. This goes even beyond the current tournament. Gareth Southgate prefers a pragmatic style. The result is above everything. Entertainment is not a priority. Due to this strategy England managed to reach the UEFA Euro final in 2021, for the first time in their history. This is how everything’s going to work in this knockout stage too.

England scored only two goals in the group stage, conceding just once. Over 2 goals in regular time have been scored only in 1 out of the last 10 European Championship games England have played.

Slovakia will contribute to this style too. They won’t rush into attacks against England. They’re likely to play in the way they did versus Belgium. Slovakia can keep the defensive line. They haven’t conceded over 1 goal in 11 out of their last 14 official games.

Our prediction is Under 2.5 at 1,65.
