Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Ireland vs England

Ireland

The Irish team did not participate in the 2024 European Championship last summer, so they have not played official matches for a long time, but only held friendly games. This means that the Irish national team players will definitely approach the new Nations League cycle hungry for victories and maximally motivated.

The Irish have found themselves in a very difficult group, where, in addition to England, their opponents will also be the teams of Greece and Finland. Already in the first round, the Irish team will have a difficult home match against the favorites of the quartet, the English, in which the hosts will have to show their best football to count on some points.

England

England came very close to a historic victory at Euro 2024, but lost the final again, this time to Spain. The Three Lions can certainly put the European Championship under their belt, but their fans were clearly disappointed with the defeat in the decisive game.

After the 2024 European Championship, the England team was left without its long-term coach, as Gareth Southgate decided to leave his post. In the match against Ireland, the English team will be led by Lee Carsley in an acting capacity. It is unclear how the team will play under the new coach, but in such a match the English simply must win.
