England is poised to secure the top spot in Group C as they prepare to face Slovenia at RheinEnergieStadion. With a strong position nearing the EURO 2024 knockout stages, Englandโs manager Gareth Southgate needs to ensure his team doesnโt become complacent. Facing a crucial match, Slovenia will likely open up, which could provide England, led by Harry Kane, ample opportunities for counter-attacks in Tuesdayโs game. Conor Gallagher may be considered for the starting lineup, and there are no new injuries reported except for Man Utd left-back Luke Shaw, who is not expected to recover in time for the match.
On the other side, Slovenia, under the guidance of Matjaz Kek, almost clinched a victory against Serbia in their last match until a late equalizer by Luka Jovic dashed their hopes at the Allianz Arena. Given the potential dip in morale after such a setback, betting on England, the current leaders of Group C, seems promising. Kek is likely to retain the same lineup that nearly overcame Serbia.
Prediction: 2:0
