England v Ireland Nations League Betting Tips 17/11/24
England hosts Republic of Ireland at Wembley on Sunday in this final Group B2 Nations League clash, so here’s our England v Ireland Nations League Betting Tips. The Three Lions’ victory over Greece last time out put them in contention to seal the top spot in the group. Despite Ireland’s win against Finland in mid-week, they cannot secure promotion to the A tier of the Nations League but will hope to defeat their local rivals away. This could be a fiery clash and there are some decent potential picks in the betting markets. England vs Ireland kicks off at 5p.m. It will be shown live on ITV and STV.
Form and Team News
England occupy top spot in Group B2 after securing four wins from five in the Nations League. Lee Carsley’s interim spell as manager began with a pair of 2–0 wins over Ireland away and Finland at home. The Three Lions were then stunned by Greece in a 2-1 home loss before responding with a 3-1 victory in Finland. Carsley’s outfit faced a must-win clash in Greece on Thursday and came out as 3–0 winners to overtake the Sky-Blue and White in first place. Heimir Hallgrímsson’s reign as Ireland boss began with consecutive 2-0 Nations League defeats to England and Greece. They have improved slightly since, beating Finland twice (2-1 and 1-0), which came either side of a 2-0 loss against Greece. The Boys in Green sit third and six points behind Greece in Group B2.
An injury crisis hit England before the November internationals. Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, Levi Colwill, Cole Palmer, Phil Foden, Jack Grealish, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Aaron Ramsdale all withdrew from international duty. For Ireland, Jack Taylor and Chiedozie Ogbene have been ruled out and will not feature.
Match Winner Bet
The pre-match odds reflect the respective recent form of England and Ireland. Ultimately, given the Boys in Greens’ three defeats in five Nations League games, they are considered outsiders. Hallgrímsson’s outfit has historically struggled in England and hasn’t won in their previous four visits across the Irish Sea. With odds of 14/1, Bet365 has given an Irish away victory little chance. However, improving form may lead to a potential draw. Ireland have also drawn five of their previous eight against England, and VBet’s 11/2 odds may be worth a low outlay on Sunday. A youthful England side showed their quality against a strong Greece side on Thursday. It marked back-to-back wins for Carsley’s outfit, and the Three Lions will be eager to hold top spot in Group B and secure promotion back to the A leagues. Odds of 1/ 4 for a home victory, provided by Coral, appear fairly decent ahead of kick-off.
Over/Under Goals Betting
Historically, England vs Ireland isn’t a high-scoring affair. Under 2.5 goals has landed in eight of the last nine head-to-heads. The Boys in Green may also want to keep things tight following some fairly good recent form. In addition, Ireland has seen under 2.5 goals in four of their five Nations League games. This could be another cagey encounter as Hallgrímsson’s outfit will want to finish their campaign on a high and at least try to hold England in their own backyard. With 23/20 odds, BetVictor has good potential returns on another under 2.5 outcome at Wembley.
Anytime Goalscorer Bets
Some top-quality players will be on shown for this England vs Ireland clash. One player who has slowly started showing glimpses of a return to form is Ireland’s Evan Ferguson. The Brighton man scored the winner against Finland to seal his second goal in his last four appearances. Backing Ferguson to strike again has good value with Bet365 offering 7/1 odds. But a Harry Kane goal at Wembley looks the best bet here, with Unibet providing 9/10 odds. Kane was rested for the Greece match, and Carsley is likely to restore his captain following a rest. The Bayern Munich man has been in his usual electric scoring form this season, with 19 goals and two in the Nations League.
