Match Overview
Malta take on England in the 3rd round of the UEFA Euro Qualification Group C competition on Saturday. The visiting side appear to be much stronger than their opponents, and the hosts will be pressed to put up a big challenge towards them. England have an all-round unit at their disposal, and it will be interesting to see how well they rotate their players.
Key Highlights
Malta stand no chance at all against England here and the latter will most probably field a weakened starting lineup consisting of players who do not generally get a lot of time on the field. Manager Gareth Southgate will hope that he can inspire his fringe players to put up a good showing against Malta, who are ranked 172 by FIFA at the time of writing.
Injury Report
Both the teams will feel confident because they do not have any major absentees in their side owing to injuries. Ben Chilwell and Reece James, of course, have been ruled out for a long time for the Three Lions, but they have suitable replacements in Luke Shaw and Kieran Trippier respectively.
Prediction
England appear to be the downright favourites to win this game. They are also expected to score more than 3 goals at least. The Maltese defenders need to be ready for a full-on assault coming their way. England should be able to win this match and score more than 3 goals very comfortably in this game.
