Thomas Tuchel's England are on the brink of qualification for the 2026 Mundial as they visit Latvia for a Group K clash on Tuesday evening. A win in Riga will guarantee the Three Lions first place in the group with three matches still to play. England are perfect in the group, amassing 15 points from 5 games. Latvia, on the other hand, have a sole win in six games, while losing three. They played out a disappointing draw with minnows Andorra last time out. England are runaway favorites to win the game, having beaten Latvia 3-0 in the reverse fixture.

Latvia vs. England Match Previews
Latvia: form and statistics
The 11 Wolves have five points from six games, and are six points behind the playoff spot currently held by Albania on eleven points. Latvia blew an opportunity to mount a run for qualification via the playoff route by drawing with minnows Andorra at home last time out. Andorra, which had lost all five of its games ahead of the clash, secured a 2-2 draw in Riga. Latvia have a terrible record against the top teams in Europe, losing serially and barely scoring a goal against top opposition.
Latvia Possible Starting Lineup:
Zviedris; Savalnieks, Balodis, Cernomordijs, Jurkovskis, Ciganiks, Zelenkovs, Varslavans, Ikuanieks, Gutkovskis, Sits
Bet on Latvia vs. England with Bet365England: form and statistics
Following Serbia's loss to Albania on Saturday, a win in Riga means that England will book their ticket to North America next summer with a victory over Latvia. The Three Lions have been peerless in qualification, winning all their matches and conceding none, the only team across UEFA's qualification groups with that record. In September, the last time England played a qualifier, they thrashed Serbia 5-0 away. Tuchel's men warmed up for the trip to Riga with a 3-0 demolition of neighbors Wales in a friendly game, concluding the business in the first half with strikes from Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins, and Bukayo Saka. Tuchel rested some of his starters in that friendly, with the captain, Harry Kane and others likely to start in Riga.
England Possible Starting Lineup:
Pickford; Konsa, Guehi, Stones, James, Anderson, Rice, Rashford, Rogers, Saka, Kane
England vs. Latvia Match Prediction
The Three Lions will certainly romp to the World Cup in an emphatic manner here in Riga. The only bone of contention for the ninety minutes would be how many goals England scores. If they can put five past Serbia in September and three in the first half against Wales last weekend, then we should expect a goal fest against Latvia. We predict an England victory with over 3.5 goals in the game.
