DANIEL McCulloch (@DMcCulloch1984) gives us his best bets ahead of England's Euro 2020 qualifying encounter in Prague against the Czech Republic on Friday night.
Czech Republic v England | Friday 11th September 2019, 19:45 | ITV
England are quickly becoming one of the most entertaining national sides in football, scoring 19 and conceding four in their opening four matches in Euro 2020 qualification.
Their last game – a 5-3 victory over Kosovo – was particularly enthralling, and it is with that in mind that I am once again selecting an England victory and Both Teams To Score (23/10 888). I backed this when they faced Bulgaria as well and while Gareth Southgate’s side managed a clean sheet that day, their opponents did have chances and Jordan Pickford was required to make four saves.
England did beat the Czechs by five goals to nil when they played at Wembley earlier in the year but that was the only time in their last 13 encounters that they have failed to score. They will surely be a tougher proposition in Prague and they must have taken great heart from how porous England have been at the back recently.
Ultimately, with a frontline of Raheem Sterling, Harry Kane and Jadon Sancho, England should have too much pace, skill and finishing ability for the Czechs but I don’t expect them to win without scoring.
In truth, I would take a far smaller price, so the 23/10 (888) are offering looks huge, to me.
Best Bets
Czech Republic v England – England to win and Both Teams To Score (23/10 888)
