England vs Brazil Preview

It’s that time again. Anticipation is on the rise. Fans are discussing their 23-man squad and picking their eleven for Euro 2024.

Preparations begin with a heavyweight tie against Brazil, who arrive in London following three consecutive losses toward the back end of last year.

Defeats against Uruguay, Colombia and Argentina mean they now sit in a disappointing sixth place in their World Cup qualification group.

In contrast, England are unbeaten following the Qatar World Cup, winning eight and drawing two of the 10 games since.

The last time the Three Lions faced the South American giants was an international friendly in 2017, which finished 0-0 at Wembley.

In fact, since the turn of the millennium, these two nations have met seven times. Four have ended all-square and two have gone the way of the Brazilians.

The only England victory came in 2013 when Wayne Rooney and Frank Lampard got the goals in a 2-1 win.

Latest England vs Brazil Betting Odds

England are favourites on home soil at 1.79, with the visitors 3.75 underdogs and a draw priced at 3.40. Goals are expected and both teams to score has been heavily backed at 1.74.

Over 1.5 goals (1.27) and over 2.5 goals (1.83) are both attracting plenty of attention, with over 2.5 having landed in two of the previous three meetings.

Harry Kane has scored 37 goals in all competitions in his debut season for Bayern and is leading the odds to break the deadlock against Brazil at 4.60.

The Real Madrid duo Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo are favourites to open the scoring for Brazil at 8.50.

England vs Brazil Betting Tips

Bet Builder: England win, both teams to score and Harry Kane to score anytime – 4.60

England are in far better form than the visiting side. Brazil also typically don’t travel well. Of their last six games outside of their home nation, Brazil have lost four.

Both teams to score – 1.74

If you’re looking for shorter odds, the both teams to score market still offers value. England have kept just two clean sheets in six games, with those coming against Australia and Malta. Southgate’s side have conceded against Ukraine, Scotland, Italy, and North Macedonia in the last year.
