England vs Finland Tips
Tip 1
Kane can typically be a shrewd selection to commit a foul depending on the price, but we’re siding with him to remain prudent on Tuesday evening in relation to his off-the-ball work.
England’s skipper won three fouls without conceding any on Saturday, which given the circumstances of that game – away from home against a rival of England’s – the bet was under a larger threat of being unsuccessful there than at home to Finland midweek.
Pressing high, consistently and aggressively, isn’t in Kane’s wheelhouse and we aren’t about to see him readjust his game at 31-years-old after carving out 10 years of success without that trait.
Tip 2
Lee Carsley has made it clear that he views Trent Alexander-Arnold as a full-back and intends to deploy him from that position as opposed to any midfield experiment previously trialled for both club and country.
TAA had a strong showing at both ends of the pitch on Saturday, attempting seven crosses and completing 93 of his side’s 713 passes – the most of any England player that day.
Despite not yet recording an assist for Liverpool under Arne Slot, the technician has posted some impressive attacking numbers within their first three matches. He’s issued 10 shot-creating actions – averaging 5.1 per 90 at the moment – and is carrying an xAG of 1.2, which informs us that his teammates aren’t converting their chances rather than Alexander-Arnold not providing a sufficient supply line.
England Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up
Caretaker boss Lee Carsley enjoyed a comforting 2-0 win in the backyard of neighbours Ireland for his first outing in charge of the senior team.
The Three Lions have reported no injuries in the wake of that victory. Expect minimal rotation, if any, from the hosts, who are set to make Harry Kane the 10th individual to ever reach 100 England caps.
England Predicted XI: Pickford; Alexander-Arnold, Guehi, Stones, Colwill; Mainoo, Rice, Grealish; Saka, Kane, Gordon.
Finland Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up
Markku Kanerva’s men suffered a devastating 3-0 loss to Greece on match day 1 of the 2024/25 Nations League campaign, leaving them without a win in three games.
Tuesday’s visitors are likely to be without key pair Kaan Kairinen and Rasmus Schuller – the former having picked up a pre-match injury last time out and the latter was substituted just before half-time through injury.
Finland Predicted XI: Hradecky; Stahl, Hoskonen, Ivanov, Galvez; Peltola, Nissila; Lod, Kamara, Antman; Pohjanpalo.
England vs Finland Head-To-Head Record
