England v Slovenia Betting Tips [25 June 2024]

Failing to beat Denmark has come with weighty pressures for England ahead of the game against Slovenia at the 2024 European Championship. Despite all, England are leading Group C with four points, two ahead of their opponents. All the Three Lions need is to avoid defeat in their third game and they’ll have secured their place in the knockouts. They are coming from a 1-1 draw with Denmark, which many would feel was a respectable outcome. The problem has to be with their execution in that game, after only leading for under 20 minutes. The jitters are understandable, as England, finalists in the last tournament, come here with two wins only in seven games. With some of the best attackers around, England are almost guaranteed they’d score in any game. They indeed failed to score in only two of the last 19 matches. However, they have only four clean sheets in 12 games.

Slovenia aren’t in great shape either, but have shown they have the quality to trouble a destabilized England. The Dragons come into this game having drawn each of their last three matches. They are however unbeaten in eight games and coming here they’ll want to give more for three points. In their last outing, a late lapse denied them a crucial win as Serbia scored a 95th minute goal to see it end 1-1. It was also the fourth straight game they failed to keep a clean sheet, though like England, they rarely fail to score. Slovenia scored in each of their last 14 matches but with just three clean sheets in 10, they will want to also focus on defence. While both these nations are under pressure, England will feel as the favorites, going by their superior head-to-head record. Slovenia have never beaten England before, losing five of six meetings.

Slovenia are faced with a ‘must-win’ situation when they take on England, a side they’ve never beaten before. England aren’t pressure-free coming into this game; they have to up their game after a lackluster performance against Denmark. As such both these nations will be going for three points, an assurance that we will have them attacking. They aren’t too shady in attack which strengthens the expectation for goals. As such, our prediction for England v Slovenia is for both nations to score.
