Team Wales

To advance, Wales must win and hope Iran vs. USA is a draw to guarantee a top-two finish, and Wales would top the group if it beats England by four or more goals. If the USA or Iran win, Wales will need to beat England by four or more goals to finish second ahead of them. A draw or loss and Wales is done. The Welsh drew with the USA 1-1 in their opening match but were upset by Iran 2-0 in the second – both goals coming in stoppage time and with Wales down to 10 men as goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey was sent off with a red card. Hennessey was shown a red for a challenge on Mehdi Taremi in the closing stages of the game. The original yellow shown by the referee was overturned upon a VAR review. Thus, he won’t play here. Wales captain and star Gareth Bale has admitted that the red card “changed the game” against Iran. Danny Ward replaced Hennessey in that match and should start here. The favoured Wales player for an anytime goal is Gareth Bale +330.

Team England

There are several scenarios regarding England in the group but it is guaranteed to win it with a victory or with a draw if this game and Iran-USA are both draws. The English can only be eliminated if they lose by at least four goals to Wales. The Three Lions were largely outplayed by the USA in a 0-0 draw – managing just one shot in goal — in their last match after pummeling Iran in the opener. Gareth Southgate is are expected to make several changes to the starting lineup for this one with Jordan Henderson set to start in midfield and Phil Foden is pushing to start for the first time at a World Cup. The favoured English player for an anytime scorer is Harry Kane at +103.
