Wales vs England Prediction | Form and Superstar Players
In the third round of Group B of the World Cup, we have an island derby, as Wales go up against England. Every team still has a chance to qualify for the next round, but the Dragons have the most challenging road.
The Dragons still have a chance to qualify, only thanks to the Three Lions finishing their games against the USA in a draw. So what will it take for Wales to go past the group stage? Well, they need to start by beating England.
The match takes place at Ahmed bin Ali Stadium and is scheduled for the 29th of November. Continue reading our Wales vs England prediction, and find out whether the Dragons have what it takes to beat the Three Lions.
Wales vs England – Form and Team News
After two rounds in Group B, it is still a question of who continues the competition and who goes home. England are at the top of the table with four points, and Wales are last, with one point.
The Dragons have not produced the results they were hoping for, and are now facing a difficult road to the next round. In the first round, they finished in a draw against the USA. Iran took the win in the second round leaving Wales in an unpleasant situation.
On the other hand, England took the win in the first round against Iran, in an interesting match which ended 6:2. But, the Three Lions were surprised in the second round when they couldn’t beat the USA in a game that ended without goals.
For Wales to advance, they will need to beat England, but they also depend on the other match in the group. If Iran and the USA end their game in a draw and the Dragons win, they will have the same number of points as Iran.
In that case, the goal difference will decide. At the moment, both teams have a goal difference of -2, meaning a win for Wales and a draw for Iran takes the Dragons into the next stage. To further complicate things for the Dragons, their primary goalkeeper, Wayne Hennessey, is missing the match due to a red card he received in the last game.
