England continue their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign this evening against Latvia.
The Thomas Tuchel era opened with a 2-0 victory over Albania, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Harry Kane netting the goals.
Another routine win is expected over a Latvia side ranked 140th in the world by FIFA.

England vs Latvia Preview
While the victory over Albania was fairly easy, Tuchel will be expecting more from his players in an attacking sense against Latvia.
Both Phil Foden and Marcus Rashford flattered to deceive on the flanks, so do not be surprised if each of them is demoted to the bench.
The England boss has plenty of options available, including Jarrod Bowen, Morgan Rogers and Anthony Gordon.
But given Albania failed to have a shot on target with their 25% of possession, expect the rest of the team to remain virtually the same.
Lewis-Skelly’s place at left-back looks assured after a stellar showing in which he became the youngest ever player to score on their England debut.
In truth, it is hard to make any case for Latvia, although they did at least beat Andorra 1-0 away from home in their opener.
If the Latvians were to leave London with another three points under the belt, it would represent one of the greatest shocks of the modern international era.
England vs Latvia Odds
*All odds are subject to change
There is no value whatsoever in an England win, as the Three Lions are priced at 1.01. Latvia are at 36.00 to complete a seismic shock, while the draw is 12.00
England vs Latvia Betting Tips
Jude Bellingham to score anytime @ 2.32
Bellingham rarely drops a bad performance for England and we are expecting him to turn up at Wembley once again. The Real Madrid star has six goals in 41 international appearances.
England to score over 4.5 goals @ 2.70
With so many exciting attackers to pick from, England should score plenty of goals against an inferior Lativia side. If the Three Lions strike early, it could get messy for the visiting team.
England to have over 10.5 corners @ 2.25
Rather surprisingly, England only had four corners against Albania, another stat highlighting the inefficiencies in attack. We expect that number to increase (more than double in fact) against Latvia, though.
