Ukraine vs. England Predictions

• Where: Tarczynski Arena, Wroclav, Poland
• When: Saturday, September 9, 6 pm ET

Due to the situation back home, the Ukrainian national team meets England in Wroclaw at a neutral venue. However, the Ukrainians have already played several games in their neighborhood country, so they are accustomed to the environment and the circumstances. England has all four wins so far and is topping group C, inflicting the only loss to their upcoming rivals.

Ukraine vs. England Predictions

Ukraine

Sergei Rebrov’s crew has two wins and one loss so far. As stated, that single failure was against England in the qualifiers opener at Wembley, 2-0. After that, they played three games not losing the single one. 

The first was a draw against Germany, 3-3, on the road, in an event which was fabulous for watching. Six goals, plenty of flamboyant football, quick and precise actions, etc. Ukraine was better than North Macedonia on the road following that clash, 2-3, and barely defeated Malta at “home,” 1-0. 

Ukraine’s football relies upon counter-attacks and fast transition, with Mudryk being the the target in each of those situations. He quickly takes the ball and moves it toward the rival’s goalkeeper.

England

The English unit has been fantastic in recent times. Since losing to England in Qatar, undeservingly, some would say, they had four matches winning each.

What is impressive is the fact that in three encounters, Gareth Southgate’s unit kept a clean sheet. Three Lions opened the qualifiers with a big win on the road against Italy, 1-2, after which they defeated Ukraine, 2-0, Malta, 0-4, and North Macedonia in London, 7-0. 

This team is constantly one step short of winning the trophy on the international stage. Since 2018, England has been in the mix for winning every big tournament, yet they either lacked luck or composure in the crucial moments.

Ukraine vs. England Head to Head 

Kane and Saka scored in the span of three minutes to knock out the rivals in the first meeting. Kane netted in the 37th and Saka in the 40th minute. The previous clash was at the EURO 2021 quarterfinals. It took place in Rome, and England smashed the rivals 4-0. 

Over the previous ten meetings since 2000, Ukraine has just one triumph.

Ukraine vs. England Predictions

England is in a good position, as they hold the top spot and have victories over both of their direct rivals for the first place. Therefore, they don’t need to open up and attack, but lay back and wait for Ukraine’s mistake. We don’t think this game will bring too many goals, so under 2.5 hits is the best pick.

Our verdict: Under 2.5 goals
