- Venue: Veltins-Arena, Germany
The england national football team vs slovakia national football team lineups off in the round of 16 of the Euro 2024 competition at the Veltins Arena. Despite a slow start to the summer event, the Three Lions are predicted to secure their place in the quarterfinals.
On Sunday, England will strive for a victory over a team that has had difficulty winning against the Three Lions. With just two goals in three games, Gareth Southgate’s team has had a depressing start to the season. Since the beginning of Euro 2024, they have probably underperformed the most in the competition because they have been unable to establish any kind of consistency. The fans are furious at England’s performance, and they are mostly angry with the management.
Slovakia, under by manager Francesco Calzona, had an outstanding season, finishing third in Group C with three points. However, they have a dismal record when playing England, so they should prepare for a formidable challenge in this knockout match.
England vs Slovakia Team News
News about the England national football team
Luke Shaw was not included in England’s squad for their final group match against Slovenia, but he might be involved in this match. In the center of midfield, Kobbie Mainoo and Declan Rice could partner up after Trent Alexander-Arnold’s lackluster performance in his previous game, with Jude Bellingham playing the No. 10 position. Due to Phil Foden’s temporary departure from the team for personal reasons, Saka may start on the right wing and Palmer on the left.
For the match against England on Sunday, manager Francesco Calzona will start with the same starting lineup. He has stuck to his lineup, substituting David Strelec for Róbert Boženík as the lone change. Slovenia’s defense will be spearheaded by captain Milan Skriniar from the outset.

Important Players to Keep an Eye on
The Real Madrid striker won the match in England’s first encounter with Serbia. Jude Bellingham played a key role in helping Real Madrid win the Champions League and La Liga titles. Bellingham led Los Blancos in goals scored in all competitions last season with 23. Despite England’s lackluster performance in the summer competition, Bellingham is one of the tournament’s top players in Euro 2024.
Milan Skriniar
The PSG defender, who will captain Slovakia far into the Euro 2024 competition, will receive his 71st cap on Sunday when they play England. Skriniar made 24 appearances in Ligue 1 last season after joining PSG on a free transfer last summer. However, the 29-year-old’s situation has not improved, as PSG is prepared to let go of the defender this summer following just one season.
Slovakia versus England Forecast
The national football team of England just finished its Euro 2024 campaign in a draw with Slovenia, 0-0. After three games, the Three Lions advanced to the knockout stages with five points. Only one of Southgate’s three goals has come from goal, showing that they have not yet found their rhythm. Despite their lackluster performance in the group stages, England is predicted to advance to the quarterfinals and face either Switzerland or Italy.
The Slovakia national football team, on the other hand, has had a fantastic run at the European Championship, emerging as the underdogs and making it to the competition’s first-ever knockout stages. They secured their spots in the round of sixteen by finishing third with four points from three games. They’ve never won against England and have a dismal record against them.
Predicted result: Slovakia 2-0 England
