England Slovenia betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This bout tends to be somewhat unbalanced, considering that the home team has a squad of great quality and is very well in Group C where it leads and is a step away from the Russian Cup, while the away team still fights for the second wave to try to reach the playoffs as one of the best second placed. In addition, England has won all the games played at home, having the best attack and the defense least leaked of the group, while Slovenia has only 1 win in all four matches played away from home and this triumph was against weak Malta and for the minimum scoreboard, in addition to coming from 2 defeats away from home where it did not even score goals. 
Given these factors, we believe that England will assert its superiority, controlling the match and win the 3 points to secure a place in the World Cup.

Preview
England and Slovenia meet at Wembley Stadium, in a match for this stage of the WC Qualification Europe (1st Round). The recent head‑to‑head record favours the home team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 1 draw in the last 3 matches. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since Slovenia presents significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis England

After 6 wins and 2 draws, the home team is currently in the 1st position, with 20 points won. In the last match, they have won (2‑1) at home against Slovakia, after in the previous round they have won (0‑4) in an away match against Malta. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses in away matches; against 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses at their stadium. In the last 4 WC Qualification Europe home matches England has a record of 4 wins.

They have won the last 4 home matches and haven't lost any of the last 8 matches for this competition. They have presented defensive consistency, since they have only suffered goals in 2 of the last 8 matches, and their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 8 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 13 of the last 14 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 6 of the last 8 matches for the WC Qualification Europe, they have reached half‑time in front in 3 of those 6 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 5 of them. In the last 14 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

England heads into this ninth round of the qualifiers without losing a match and goes in search of 3 more points to guarantee, in advance, direct qualification for the World Cup in Russia. The good campaign so far can be explained by the excellent balance between attack and defense, having scored 16 goals, being the best attack of Group F, and conceded only 3 goals, having the defense less leaked and it is worth mentioning that its offensive system scored at least 2 goals in the last 5 matches.
Considering the home matches, England maintains 100% of the points played after 4 games and it is worth mentioning that it is the team that scored most and conceded less goals in its group, evidencing that it is a very difficult team to be beaten when playing at home.
For the clash against Slovenia, coach Gareth Southgate has several absences due to injuries, being the main the midfielder Lallana and striker Vardy.

Confirmed Lineup: Joe Hart, Kyle Walker, Ryan Bertrand, John Stones, Gary Cahill, Eric Dier, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jordan Henderson, Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling, Marcus Rashford.
Coach: G. Southgate.

Analysis Slovenia

The away team is currently in the 3rd position, with 14 points won, after 4 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate round, they have lost an away match against Slovakia by (1‑0). In the last round, they have won a home match against Lithuania by (4‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 11 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 7 conceded. In the last 4 WC Qualification Europe away matches Slovenia has a record of 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 9 of the last 10 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In the last 10 away matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have conceded 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (76'‑90') and 3 of their 8 goals between (31'‑45').

Slovenia comes to this game with only the win in mind, as a draw will most likely leave the team out of the next World Cup as Slovakia, second placed, plays against Malta in the final round and certainly win the 3 points. 
The team is characterized by an imbalance between the offensive and defensive sectors, having scored only 10 goals, being the third worst attack of Group F, but on the other hand, suffered only four goals, having the second defense less leaked, having suffered only 1 goal in the last 3 qualifying matches. 
Slovenia has only the fourth best campaign among the 6 participants in its group and it is worth noting that the team has scored only 3 goals in 4 matches, once again showing the low quality of its attack who struggles to score goals.
For the clash against England, coach Katanec has no problems with injuries or suspensions and goes to the field with maximum strength, betting everything in the midfielder Ilicic, the main piece of his squad.

Confirmed Lineup: Jan Oblak, Aljaž Struna, Bojan Jokić, Miha Mevlja, Rene Krhin, Rajko Rotman, Josip Iličić, Benjamin Verbič, Roman Bezjak, Andraž Šporar.
Coach: Boštjan Cesar, M. Kek.
