LiontipsEngland vs Ireland. Nations League Match Prediction and Bets
Command Analysis
Current form
Before the tournament, England was considered the favorite in the second group of League B. Who would have thought that after five matches played, the Greek national team would have the same number of points. It is with them that the players of acting head coach Lee Carsley share the first line in the tournament table, having 12 points. But if it were not for the October defeat on their home field from the Greeks (1:2), the hosts of the upcoming match would now be in the first line alone. Now they need to win with as big a score as possible so that Greece cannot overtake them on additional indicators.
Disqualifications and injuries
Alexander-Arnold, Stones, Maguire, Saka and Grealish are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- England have won four of their last five matches at home
The hosts have scored in ten games in a row
Probable line-up: Pickford - Walker, Gehi, Konsa, Lewis - Gallagher, Jones - Madueke, Bellingham, Gordon - Watkins.
Current form
Ireland failed to compete with England and Greece and will definitely fight in the play-offs for the right to remain in League B. In the five games played, the Irish won twice against Finland (2:1 and 1:0), and suffered a fiasco in the remaining matches. The team statistics of goals scored and conceded are negative: with three goals scored, they have conceded seven times. It is far from certain that the coaching staff will give instructions to give it their all, because the upcoming match means absolutely nothing to them.
Disqualifications and injuries
Brady and Ogbene are injured and Knight is out due to suspension.
Interesting trends for betting
- Ireland have lost three of their last four away matches
The visitors have scored in two of their last three matches.
Probable line-up: Kelleher - Doherty, Collins, Scales, O'Dowda - Ebosele, Cullen, Molumby, Johnston - Szmodics, Ferguson.

4.70England to score in both halves bet
The bet came in in the last two games
1.90Ireland not to score bet
Ireland have failed to score in their last three defeats
1.70Tip and bets
England are not playing so perfectly at home. Just look at the statistics: in the last six matches with local fans, the English have won in regulation time only once. At the same time, it should be noted that at the right moments, the founders of football know how to pull themselves together and play great football. The October fiasco against Greece will not allow the hosts to play half-heartedly, and, as we believe, they will be able to secure a confident victory at home, thereby receiving a first ticket to League A.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on England with odds of 1.72
Bet on total
From a tournament point of view, there is no point for Ireland to give it their all in the upcoming match. And the game in the first round against the English shows that the visitors are several times weaker than their upcoming opponent.
In 2020, the opponents played a friendly match at this stadium, and England won 3-0. At that time, the Irish were stronger, so it is unlikely that they will be able to score a goal against their opponents this time.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with odds of 1.52
Bet on corners
England will clearly be looking to dominate the pitch and will likely have a lot of dangerous attacks. In that case, they will easily win the corner flag count.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-2.5) corners for England with odds of 1.55
