England FC is looking to keep their momentum going, despite having a guaranteed spot in 2024 Euro, by trying to earn a win against Malta FC. Looking at the group standings, these two teams are at the both ends of the standings. It is not surprising that England is at the top of their standings, as they are with 16 points in the contest. On the other hand, Malta is at the fifth of their group standings, but have yet to win a single match, which gives them zero point. Moreover, England and Malta already played six meetings across all contests, but it was England who dominates them. The last meeting between these two teams is June of this year, but England won that match. This meeting is on November 18, 2023, at 3:45 AM (GMT+8).
England FC
England secured a two-part revenge mission over Italy after their Euro 2020 heartbreak, and now face Germany in Germany. The Three Lions defeated the reigning continental champions, who have not been as strong as during Roberto Mancini’s glory days. Harry Kane’s strikes and Marcus Rashford’s finish helped complete a stellar comeback for Southgate’s troops. England now has 16 points from six games in Group C, and while Italy and Ukraine can draw level with the Euro 2020 runners-up, the head-to-head column will be crucial if they suffer shock losses in their final two matches. England is one of seven teams battling for three spots in Pot 1 of the group-stage draw, with Belgium, Austria, and Turkey all in danger of losing their final group matches.
Due to a shoulder injury, England will have to make it do without Jude Bellingham, who already withdrew here. Aside from him, they will also be without Lewis Dunk, James Maddison, Callum Wilson, Levi Colwill, Marcus Rashford, and Kalvin Phillips.
Malta FC
Malta is facing a difficult final match in Group C, with five other teams without a single point. They are at risk of losing every Euros qualifying match for the second time in 51 years. They already lost eight out of eight during the preliminary rounds for Euro 2000. Despite a brief comeback against Ukraine, Malta is guaranteed to finish dead last at Wembley. Their losing streak in Euros qualifiers could stretch to 17 matches in the English capital. In June, England defeated Malta in a 4-0 match, making it six wins from six against their opponents. Malta will be left to reflect on another miserable year, with 1-0 friendly wins over Gibraltar and Luxembourg as highlights.
Kemar Reid, the standout for Malta, is expected to lead here, as he can now be with the squad, after gaining his citizenship. Moreover, Malta is fortunate that they will have Teddy Teuma, and Jodi Jones from their injuries.
Prediction:
England FC (4.0)
Odds: -0.88
