England u19s

England u19s are set to take on the Netherlands u19s in the final game of Group B at the Under-19 European Championships on Friday, 20 June. 

The match isn't all that important for the Netherlands as they have already secured qualification through to the semi-finals, but for England, it's a monumental fixture.

The Three Lions are on two points after two matches and need a win to guarantee their place in the knockout stages.

How the bookies view it: No odds available

At the time of writing, there are no odds available for the match between the Netherlands u19s and England u19s.

Head to head: Plenty of encouragement for England

Due to the fact that teams at this level are forever changing, there isn't much value in looking back beyond a couple of years in the recent H2H record between England u19s and the Netherlands u19s. However, they did meet in October 2024, and it was the Three Lions who came out on top 4-1.

Players to watch: Can the comeback kings go one better on Friday?

There will be more eyes on this match than anticipated, thanks to England's incredible comeback against Germany last time out. After 48 minutes, the Three Lions found themselves 5-1 down, but just 13 minutes later, they had levelled things up at 5-5.

The two key men in that comeback were Ethan Wheatley and Reiss-Alexander Russel-Denny. The former kicked things off by making it 5-2, giving his team the boost they needed when they were staring humiliation in the face.

Wheatley, who is still considered a future first-team prospect for Manchester United, linked up well with Ruseel-Denny in the second half against Germany. The young Tottenham winger scored England's third goal against Germany and provided the assist for the fourth.

If both of these youngsters play to their best level on Friday, then England have every chance of making it to the semi-finals.

Predicted line-ups

The Netherlands are expected to make significant changes to their starting XI for this one, with a place in the semi-finals already secured. This should give England a bigger chance of picking up the three points they need to join the Netherlands in the last four.

As far as England are concerned, there are no new reported injuries, which should mean they go in with the same XI that came out in the second half against Germany.

Netherlands u19s: Heerkens – Read, Ugwu, Janse, Van der Plas – Boogard, Land – Panneflek, Oufkir, Smit – Konadu

England u19s: Setford – Kporha, Abott, Mfuni, Meghoma – Dyer, Young, King, Russell-Denny – Derry, Wheatley

Anything else catch the eye?

This should be a match that is packed with goals, which makes it one that everyone should try and tune into if they get the chance. So far, a total of 14 goals have been scored in both of England's matches at the tournament, while the Netherlands have scored five on their own across their opening two matches.

Additionally, five goals were scored when these two nations last met. Therefore, over 3.5 goals to be scored on Friday could be the bet that provides the most value.
