Preview of the England vs Slovakia national team in the round of 16 Euro 2024 will be discussed in this article. Harry Kane et al are struggling to qualify to repeat their achievements as finalists in the previous Euro edition.
The match between the England vs Slovakia national team will be held at the Veltins-Arena, Sunday (30/6/2024) evening WIB. Kick-off is scheduled to take place at 23.00 WIB.
The England national team started their Euro 2024 campaign with a win over Serbia, where they progressed to the round of 16 as winners of Group C. Despite being unbeaten, the draw with Slovenia sparked criticism from supporters and pundits.
England will face Slovakia, who made a surprise appearance by beating Belgium and successfully qualifying from Group E. Despite losing to Ukraine and drawing with Romania, Slovakia managed to qualify as the best third place. Slovakia, led by coach Francesco Calzona, showed improvement with their attacking style of play.
England manager Gareth Southgate may have to make some changes to his squad due to injuries and fitness. Luke Shaw returning from a hamstring injury and Phil Foden welcoming his child would be important additions. Captain Harry Kane will be expected to improve his form after a slow start to the tournament.
Slovakia, with goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, defender Milan Skriniar and midfielder Stanislav Lobotka as the backbone, are ready to put up a fight. Tomas Suslov is expected to be a secret weapon off the bench.
Forecast Lineup
England squad: Pickford; Walker, Stones, Guehi, Trippier; Mainoo, Rice; Saka, Bellingham, Foden; Kane
Timnas Slovakia: Dubravka; Pekarik, Vavro, Skriniar, Hancko; Kucka, Lobotka, Duda; Schranz, Bozenik, Haraslin
