First crash test for England

Colombia have the dynamics to win any team in the world, including England. They didn't make a good start in the tournament with the penalty and the sending off at 3' against Japan however, with their back against the wall in the following games against Poland and Senegal, they took both games  and qualified as the first in the group. James Rodriguez's participation is a question as he was replaced at 30' in the game against Senegal. The readiness of the previous tournament's first scorer will be decided a few hours before the beginning of the game.

Enlgland's squad will be renewed in this knock out game, since their manager G.Southgate preferred to face Belgium with substitutes. The 'three lions' were defeated in that game and got the second place in the group and found Colombia instead of Japan in their way, so the continuation of the tournament will prove if they made the right decisions. John Stones was slightly injured so he will logically play tonight.

England are the favorite at this point, however we haven't seen them play against any difficult team in the tournament. Colombia are an experienced team who are traditionally doing well against the European teams. I think that they will be a difficult opponent for English. Double chance  1X would be my choice.
