England U21 vs Slovenia U21 Predictions

• Slovenia have failed to win their last five matches
• England have been defeated in one of their last 13 games
• There have been 18 goals in England’s last three outings

Carsley’s boys can take upper hand

England boss Lee Carsley will be delighted his side got their defence of the European Under-21 Championship off to a winning start with a 3-1 success over the Czech republic and he should be competent they can follow up with another victory over Slovenia.

Goals from Harvey Elliott, Jon Rowe and Charlie Cresswell saw them to victory in their opener and that means only France have beaten them in their last 13 outings.

A tougher test against Germany awaits on Wednesday,but six of their last eight matches have featured more than two goals and the quality of Slovenia’s defending points to this being another.

Slovenian woes are set to continue

Andrej Razdrh’s side were left exposed by the Germans, who claimed a 3-0 victory with Stuttgart’s Nick Woltemade stealing a march in the Golden Boot race with a hat-trick.

That means Slovenia have gone five games without a win and have lost all four games they have played in this tournament.

A few days will do little for the issues to be rectified so we fancy England to come out on top of a high-scoring game with a correct-score prediction of a 3-0 Three Lions triumph.
