Our prediction for the match England vs Latvia
It would be hard to find opponents of more different class. Southgate’s era ended with the second consecutive Euro final. At the same time, it is reasonable to mention that the English, like in the case with the Italians, lost again in the decisive match, this time to Spain. The Latvians’ short football surge was limited to their only appearance at the Euro 20 years ago. They got only 3 three points the last but one year. As a result, the team finished last in the group.
Speaking about the Nations League, Kane and the company played in the League B and without a full-fledged coach. There was a misfire – they managed to lose to Greece on the native field. Nevertheless, they took a convincing revenge and won the rest of the matches, as expected, ending up as leaders. The Baltic team was again the last, now in the company of the representatives of Armenia, the Faroe Islands and North Macedonia.
On Friday, Thomas Tuchel made his debut in London. Everything ended with a not bright, but confident, 2-0, victory over the Albanians. Paolo Nicolato’s footballers also started with a victory in Andorra. Sits worked as a joker: he came on as a substitute and scored.
