England vs USA Prediction & Betting tips
While the other teams compete in the Nations League, it is for the Three Lions in the friendly game. On Thursday, the 15.11.2018, England will welcome the guests of the USA at Wembley Stadium. The game will kick off at 21:00 (CET). The pairing should mark football fans red on the calendar, as it will be the last game in which Wayne Rooney will wear the Three Lions jersey. Actually Rooney had already ended his career in the national team, but will now come back again to play one last time for his nation. Whether coach Gareth Southgate will also give him the captaincy is not yet clear.
What is certain is that it will be an emotional moment for many, after all, Rooney is the record-breaking Englishman with 53 goals. So it would be a big peculiarity, Rooney should meet again in his last game. Interestingly, it goes against the US, in the Rooney currently at D.C. United is under contract. The duel England vs. The US has significant betting odds for the hosts, so it would not be worth the tip. It is also conceivable that England will decide both halves for themselves. A tip on the victory of England in both halves could be worth by the higher odds already more.
England:
If England has not played World Cup or friendly matches recently, the League of Nations, where the Three Lions have not been lightly beaten with Spain and Croatia, got down to business. But England has done well so far and is in second place after three games behind Spain. At the start there was a home defeat against the Spaniards, but on the final day of the game, England gave away 3: 2 away. In between, there was a 0-0 in Croatia and also a 1-0 home win in a friendly against Switzerland. Although England has lost the last two World Cup games, but in principle, the last major tournament has shown that the team is expected. In the last game against Spain, England has even earned a 3-0 lead early and thus set a clear exclamation point. It’s actually more of a test match than a competition against the US, but Rooney’s last-ditch goal is to win another at Wembley.
USA:
The USA has missed the last World Cup in Russia and therefore played only friendlies in recent months. At the next World Cup in four years, the US wants to be back, but still has some work to do. Dave Sarachan has been coaching the US for nearly a year and has since then been able to score average results. There has been only one victory for the USA in six games, a 1-0 win over Mexico in September. Before that, there have been defeats against Ireland and Brazil and a draw against France. But even after the victory against Mexico, the US could not build on the performance or the result. Against Colombia, there was a 2-4 defeat and against Peru, the team did not come out over a 1-1. On these results, the odds for the upcoming game on Thursday, in which the US guests are treated as outsiders, are not surprising. But the game could also be good for a peculiarity. So Jonathan Klinsmann was nominated for the games against England and Italy and could possibly make his debut for the team. The son of Jürgen Klinsmann plays at Hertha BSC. Nevertheless, in the encounter between England and the United States, the Americans are betting odds for just one outsider role.
