FIFA World Cup 2022: England vs USA: Preview, Probable Lineup, Betting Odds, Streaming, Prediction

0

England won their last match 6-2 against Iran while USA were held 1-1 by Wales. USA have made to the knockouts in their previous two World Cups and will be aiming to replicate that, while an England win will ensure their passage to the last 16.

Team News:

England have both Callum Wilson and James Maddison under scrutiny as the former has physical discomfort. Leicester midfielder James Maddison has sustained a knee injury and that may prevent him from playing against the USA. Harry Kane is back in training after an injury against Iran and looks set to start on Friday. Bukayo Saka, who scored a brace against Iran, is also set to start while midfield duo Decland Rice and Jude Bellingham are also going to feature from the first minute.

USA, on the other hand, have no significant injury concerns and they are expected to field the strongest side. Yunus Musah and Weston McKennie had toe and groin problems respectively, but they have trained and should be fit for the England clash. Christian Pulisic will be key for the Americans and Arsenal’s Matt Turner will be between the sticks.

Probable Lineup:

England: Pickford; Trippier, Stones, Maguire, Shaw; Rice, Bellingham; Saka, Mount, Sterling; Kane

USA: Turner; Dest, Zimmerman, Ream, Robinson; McKennie, Adams, Musah; Weah, Sargent, Pulisic

England vs USA Head-to-Head:

England and USA have faced each other 11 times, with England winning 8 and USA winning 2 of those games. Their last meet was in 2018 in a friendly when England beat USA 3-0. Their last World Cup meet was back in 2010 and that match ended in a 1-1 draw.

Key Facts:

  • England have never lost against the USA in the World Cup.
  • In the last match against Iran, all of England’s five goalscorers scored their first-ever World Cup goals.
  • Should either Bukayo Saka or Jude Bellingham score again, they would become the youngest England player to score in consecutive matches at the World Cup finals.

Prediction:

This match promises to be a close encounter. England are superior in terms of quality on the pitch but USA have shown in flashes that they can be dangerous and inflict damage to any opponent. But I am going to go with an England win with a 3-1 scoreline.
