Our pick: England – Bosnia and Herzegovina: England will win and Ollie Watkins will score

03.06.2024 20:45

England will play two preparatory matches before the Euro and the first one can be called a test match, because they will be missing a lot of players.

Jude Bellingham is relaxing after the celebrations of Saturday’s Champions League triumph, trio Phil Foden, Kyle Walker and Kobbie Mainoo will join the squad after the FA Cup final later, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw and Anthony Gordon missed Sunday’s training session, Bukayo Saka and John Stones were given the day off, and captain Harry Kane has had back problems recently.

So a number of players who won’t be in the starting lineup right away will get a chance against Bosnia and Herzegovina. For example Cole Palmer, who scored 22 goals in the Premier League after his transfer to Chelsea, or Ollie Watkins, who had a season of his life with Aston Villa with 19 goals in the Premier League and 8 in the Conference League.

Albion’s opponents at St. James’ Park will be a team that failed to qualify for the Euros and are the perfect team for the home side to boost their confidence. England have not won their last three games (North Macedonia 1-1, Brazil 0-0, Belgium 2-2) and need to win and preferably by a higher margin. That shouldn’t be a problem.

Bosnia didn’t make it through European qualifying, in which they got only nine points (six against Liechtenstein) and got beaten 1:4 by Luxembourg, for example. The Dragons also lost in an additional playoff at home to Ukraine 1:2. Newcastle will be missing several important players, especially in the defensive line (Kolašinac, Bičakčić), and after Šehić’s abdication the national team is looking for a new goalkeeper.
