Latvia vs England form
A ticket to the 2026 World Cup is very close to England. Just need to win all 3 points in the trip to Latvia, the Three Lions will officially complete the set goal.
If they defeat Latvia, the team under coach Thomas Tuchel will have 18 points in hand, 7 points ahead of their nearest opponent. The remaining two matches are certainly not enough for Albania or Serbia to catch up.
Since taking over from Gareth Southgate, Tuchel has been praised for his job. The German tactician has created a more balanced and harmonious style of play for the English national team, instead of the somewhat monotonous and monotonous style of his predecessor.
Except for the surprising 1-3 defeat to Senegal in a friendly in June, Tuchel's Three Lions have so far won all their official matches. The most notable of which was their 5-0 thrashing of Serbia in Belgrade.
In a friendly match a few days ago, England continued to impress with a 3-0 victory against their neighboring team Wales. Thanks to consecutive excellent matches, the spirit of Harry Kane, Bukayo Saka, Morgan Rogers... is currently very good.
Traveling to Latvia, England will definitely aim for 3 points to book their ticket to the biggest football festival on the planet. In the first leg at Wembley, thanks to goals from Reece James, Kane and Eberechi Eze, Tuchel's team easily won 3-0.
A similar result is entirely possible. Latvia now has almost no hope of competing for second place in the group. The home team is currently second to last with 6 points, 6 points behind 2nd place Albania, while only 2 matches remain.
With limited strength, despite having the home field advantage, coach Paolo Nicolato and his team do not have high expectations for the ability to create surprises. In the last 5 times hosting guests in official tournaments, the home team has not won once, only drawing 2 and losing 3.
It is important to note that Latvia's most recent visitors are not as famous as England, but they have also put Varslavans and his teammates in a difficult position. Therefore, it will not be surprising if the home team accepts to play the role of "blue team" in the upcoming match.
