England vs Ghana Prediction & Betting Tips — FIFA World Cup
Our England vs Ghana Prediction: Over 1.5
- Ghana have 1 win from the previous 7 matches (D1, L5).
- England have cashed 1.5 goals in 8 out of their 9 previous non-friendlies.
- England and Ghana played 1-1 in their only-ever match.
Why England Over 1.5 Goals for England vs Ghana
Our prediction for England vs Ghana is that England will score two goals. The Three Lions possess too much attacking talent to be written off and after putting 4 goals past Croatia last time out, we consider this an amazing value bet for 1.36 odds on SportyBet.
England Goal-Scoring Threat
All indicators suggest England will have no shortage of goals as long as they stick to the attacking brand of football that has brought them here. The Three Lions blasted Croatia 4-2 on opening day, extending their remarkable record to 11 wins in their last 14 matches
Ghana Might Not Be Evenly Matched
The Black Stars have won just 1 of their last 7 matches and their outlook now is not positive. The quality gap between these two squads is also difficult to ignore, particularly in the attacking areas where England can call upon Bellingham, Rashford, Saka, Declan Rice and many others.
If Ghana are to pull off a miracle on Tuesday, it will almost certainly depend on Jordan Ayew, who registered 7 goals and 7 assists during the qualification campaign.
How Will Ghana Contain the Best ST in the World
A lot of questions are being raised in the Ghana camp about how exactly they plan to shut off Harry Kane and limit his production. Kane is arguably the best pure striker in world football right now, as he leads all players in goals scored (63) and goals+assists (70).
Verdict
Our England vs Ghana prediction is England Over 1.5 Goals. The Three Lions arrive in excellent form, having scored 2 or more goals in 8 of their last 9 non-friendlies. We are also skeptical that Ghana will be able to cancel out the production of Harry Kane.
