Comments on England vs Ukraine: Make sure to take the top

In the opening match of Euro 2024 qualifying, England had an impressive match when they defeated Italy with a score of 2-1, despite having to play away from home. With the above victory, the Three Lions temporarily rose to the number 1 position in Group C.

Back to the second match of the qualifying round, Harry Kane and his teammates will return to Wembley to welcome Ukraine. According to the assessment, this is a good opportunity for England to win all 3 points and firmly build the top of Group C - the position that will have tickets to go on.

Remember, unlike the opponent who owns many stars in all positions, Ukraine entered this match with a chipped squad. It should also be noted that coach Rotan's army has not had many opportunities to rub off when not playing since the Nations League group stage took place in September last year.

In another development, Ukraine was completely inferior to the UK in terms of head-to-head record. Back to the Euro 2020 final, Ukraine once lost 0-4 to England in the quarterfinals. More broadly, Ukraine has lost 5 and won only 1 time in the last 8 confrontations against England.

- England: Pickford; Trippier, Guehi, Maguire, Chilwel; Phillips, Gallagher, Bellingham; Foden, Kane, Grealish.

- Ukraine: Lunin; Karavayev, Matviyenko, Zabarnyi, Mykolenko; Malinovskyi, Stepanenko, Zinchenko; Yarmolenko, Dovbyk, Mudryk.
