Ukraine vs England Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 9th September 2023

The spotlight is on Ukraine and England when they go toe-to-toe at Stadion Miejski, Wroclaw, for an exciting match this coming Saturday. It is one of the many matches in round five of the European Championship group stage, with teams fighting to secure qualification.

England celebrated two wins against Ukraine in their most recent meetings, outclassing their next opponent by 2-0 and 4-0. Gareth Southgate's men actually had a strong reading on Ukraine with no defeats in five meetings since 2012. Only once in nine meetings did England come up short against Ukraine.

With the fourth round of the group stage done and dusted Ukraine are number two on six points. Meanwhile, England sit as number one with 12 points to their name.

England take on Ukraine as number four, whereas the home side sit as number 24 in the FIFA world ranking.

Winning their group is probably too much to expect now for Ukraine. While not impossible, with the pace England has set from the start, it seems highly unlikely, "Three Lions" will end up surrendering that lead.

The English national side is one of four team to have started the qualifying round with nothing but wins in four rounds. As such, they look a formidable opponent for Ukraine, who faces the disadvantage of not being able to play in their own country.
