Game Preview
England played routinely against Albania, beating the rivals 2-0. Myles Lewis-Skelley scored, becoming the youngest player ever in the English team to score on his debut. What a start to his international career for Arsenal’s kid.
Albion has won the last four games, and in three, they have not allowed a goal. We expect to see them even better in defense under Thomas Tuchel. The German manager likes playing dull, defensive-minded football.
Latvia is a team of modest and limited capabilities. They don’t have any superstars. Andrejs Cigaņiks from Luzern is their biggest name and the most prominent international.
They would beat Andorra on the road last Friday, 0-1, and that was Latvia’s first victory away from home in a long time. They played 12 straight road matches before posting a triumph.
England vs. Latvia Head to Head
The English and Latvian sides hadn’t met in the past. This event will be the first direct encounter between the two countries.
England vs. Latvia Predictions
The English side is a massive favorite per soccer odds. That’s why we pick them to win, but at least a three-goal margin. The odds will be quite good, and we really don’t see any scenario in which Latvians come back home without several goals in their net.
