England
Tuchel’s England haven’t quite lived up to the hype in his first four games. The Three Lions recently tasted defeat at home to Senegal in a friendly, but they have been impeccable in the World Cup qualifiers so far. So, the best sports betting apps in NZ are considering the English overwhelming favourites in this match.
They dispatched Albania (2-0), Latvia (3-0), and narrowly overcame Andorra (1-0) in Group K so far. A win against Andorra will be enough for England to win the group with two matches to spare.
Team News: Cole Palmer is not reporting for England duty as he works his way back from an injury. Ruben Loftus-Cheek has been given a rare call-up, and the AC Milan man will hope to make his first England appearance in seven years.
Predicted Lineup: Pickford; Alexander-Arnold, Konsa, Guehi, Lewis-Skelly; Rice, Bellingham; Rogers, Eze, Gordon; Kane.
Andorra
It’s a certainty that Andorra’s wait for their first-ever World Cup appearance is going to extend. They are currently at the bottom of Group K with four straight losses. The Tricolors have rarely been a reliable option to bet on football, and they will walk out as the obvious underdogs on Sunday as well.
Andorra have won only two of their 66 qualifying matches. They did put up a commendable performance against England at home, but playing in front of a raucous Villa Park crowd will be a completely different challenge for Koldo Alvarez’s side.
Team News: Albert Rosas Ubach, who has five goals for Andorra, has been left out of the squad once again.
Predicted Lineup: Alvarez; Borra, San Nicolas, Llovera, Olivera, M. Garcia; Rebes, Vales, Babot, Da Silva; Fernandez.
