England vs USA Match Preview

For the 2nd matchday of Group B of the FIFA 2022 World Cup, England will face the USA.

England were impressive in their group opener, crushing Iran 6-2 and getting the World Cup off to the perfect start. As the final score shows, they fully imposed their superiority, especially from the middle of the first half, where they scored 3 times by the end of it. In the second half continued to be stormy and with 3 more goals they triumphed over Iran..

On the downside, the fact that they conceded two goals from a weak opponent, but when everything had been decided in terms of the final winner of the match. Thus, England took an early qualification lead and with another victory today, they mathematically secure their participation in the knockout stage of the competition.

The USA started their obligations in the group with a draw as in their opener they were tied 1-1 against Wales. In the first half, they entered strongly and missed many opportunities, only one of which they turned into a goal, going to the locker room in front of the score. In the replay, however, their performance dropped and this cost them as they conceded the equalizing goal on a penalty kick.

Thus, the USA paid for their inexperience by being denied the victory, but on the other hand they keep the very good performance of the first half which fills them with optimism for the continuation of the competition. With this score, the USA maintained their hopes for a place in the top two of the group that qualify for the next stage of the competition.

England started the tournament in the best possible way, offering goals and spectacle. It is reasonable that they are the favorite of the match tonight, however, against an opponent who is inexperienced but possesses a wealth of talent. I expect an open game with many chances and goals, my choice is Over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.85.
