LiontipsEngland vs Latvia: betting tip and bets on the World Cup qualification match
Command Analysis
Current form
Thomas Tuchel, as head coach of the national team, started with a 2-0 victory over Albania in the first round of the World Cup selection. According to the game, we note the total advantage in possession of the ball (74% to 26%), during the entire match the Albanians did not land a single shot on goal. The British themselves scored one goal in each of the halves. There was no defeat, but here we must pay tribute to the enemy, who defended well. Tuchel noted in an interview that it is important for his team not only to achieve results, but also to demonstrate bright and spectacular football. It's too early to draw serious conclusions from one match, but overall the game was solid.
Disqualifications and injuries
Thomas Tuchel is still unable to assemble all the strongest players, as there are many injured. Watkins, Madueke, Saka, Palmer, Mainu, Alexander-Arnold, Shaw, Maguire, Stones are in the infirmary.

Current form
The Latvian national team played the opening qualifying match against Andorra on the road. Predictably, the game turned out to be boring, with two opponents hitting only four shots on goal. The Latvians used one of their few chances in the second half (1-0), unlike the opponent. The victory allowed Paolo Nicolato's team to break the four-match series without Victoria, which the team had in the League of Nations. Let us remind you that in the C League, the Latvians could not withstand the competition from North Macedonia, Armenia and the Faroe Islands, took the last place and went to the division with a lower rank.
Disqualifications and injuries
The coaching staff cannot count on the injured Tobers and Uldrikis today.
Interesting betting trends
- In three of the last five matches of the Latvian national team, there was no exchange of goals scored.
- In six of Latvia's last seven World Cup qualifying matches, no more than three goals have been scored.
Approximate composition: Zviedris – Balodis, Chernomordiis, Yurkovskis – Savalnieks, Savelievs, Melniks, Tsiganiks – Zelenkovs, Ikaunieks – Gutkovskis.

5.10Tip and bets
There is no reason to expect a sensational victory from Latvia – the difference in class between the rivals is too great. At the same time, the British defeated Albania the day before with only a two-goal difference, although they had a total advantage. It is not so easy for Thomas Tuchel's wards to open a saturated defense. We expect that the guests will be able to avoid a complete rout today.
Our betting tip is that Latvia will win with an Asian handicap (+3.5) for a coefficient of 1.90
Bet on the total
In the previous qualifying game, the Albanians failed to land a single shot on target for the England national team. It is highly likely that the Latvians will not have a chance to score either. At the same time, we do not expect that the British will be able to single-handedly break through the total that the bookmakers have put up for this game.
The second bet is a total of less than four goals with a coefficient of 1.85
Betting on corners
Let's note the promising trend for angular in the upcoming meeting. The England national team has not completed more than eight innings from the corner flag in the six previous qualifying home matches. Accordingly, we recommend another reliable bet.
Betting Tip – England's total corners are less than 8.5 with a coefficient of 1.85
