England Preview | 3 points – 1st place
The Qatar 2022 World Cup got off to an excellent start for the England team after earning three fairly straightforward points against an Iran side that was no match for them at any point.
Gareth Southgate’s side dominated from start to finish, with three goals in the last 11 minutes of the first half. Young sensation Jude Bellingham opened the scoring in the 35th minute, and from that moment on it was a six-goal thriller, including two goals from Bukayo Saka. England owned the ball with 78% of possession while they shot 13 times, seven of them on goal, compared to only three clear chances for their opponents, which in the end resulted in two goals.
After a disastrous performance in the UEFA Nations League, in which they were relegated to League B, this is the best way for the Europeans to start the World Cup before facing a tough United States team. The British were also on alert, as their striker Harry Kane had to leave the field in the 75th minute of the match, and after the final whistle he was seen limping on his way to the bus.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Jordan Pickford, Kieran Trippier, John Stones, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, Mason Mount, Raheem Sterling, Harry Kane.
USA Preview | 1 point – 2nd place
The United States team ended up drawing against Wales on the first matchday of Group B after playing one of the closest matches of the World Cup so far.
In the first half, things started well for Gregg Berhalter’s side after a great combination between Christian Pulisic and Tim Weah. In the 35th minute Pulisic broke the lines with a through ball to Weah who finished with a three-fingered finish to beat Wayne Hennessey.
In this way USA dominance shown throughout the first half paid off, but that was quickly lost at the start of the second half with a Wales team that came out to press and saw Gareth Bale score the equalizer from the penalty spot in the 82nd minute.
The result did justice to a match that was evenly matched from start to finish, and now requires the United States to get a positive result against mighty England before taking on Iran on the final day of the group stage.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Matt Turner, Sergiño Dest, Walker Zimmerman, Tim Ream, Antonee Robinson, Tyler Adams, Weston McKennie, Yunus Musah, Christian Pulisic, Joshua Sargent and Tim Weah.
JefeBet Prediction
England is the clear favorite for this match that could represent their passage to the round of 16 if they end up sealing a victory. They have won three of their last five games against the United States, with one draw and one loss and a goal scored ratio of 8-3.
Prediction: England wins by a score of 3-0
