After delivering back-to-back winners at the weekend, SlipsTips shares a Bet Builder double ahead of Latvia’s World Cup qualifier with England on Tuesday night.
Latvia vs England (Tuesday, 19:45)
Seeking to make it six wins on the spin in 2026 World Cup qualifying, England will take on Latvia in Riga on Tuesday night.
Thomas Tuchel’s team can officially punch their ticket to next year's summer showpiece by taking top honours in the Latvian capital this week.
As for the hosts, their qualification hopes are hanging by a thread following a 2-2 draw with Andorra at the weekend.
Harry Kane to Score Anytime
For the first half of what will be a Bet Builder double, I’m keen to back Harry Kane to score anytime. The England skipper has struck four times across his five appearances in the current World Cup qualifying campaign, including the reverse fixture with Latvia earlier this year.
Kane now boasts a remarkable return of 74 goals across his 109 appearances for the Three Lions, and Tuesday night’s clash with Latvia represents an ideal opportunity to add to his incredible tally.
As mentioned, the hosts were held to a 2-2 draw by international lesser lights Andorra on Saturday, which doesn't bode well ahead of a visit from star-studded England this week.
The fact Kane has also been scoring goals for fun for Bayern Munich during the early months of the domestic season only adds to the appeal of siding with this selection. The 32-year-old forward has already fired in 18 goals in just 10 appearances for Bayern this term.
Both Teams to Score – No
Given how impressive England have been from a defensive standpoint under Thomas Tuchel’s stewardship, I’m prepared to conclude the Bet Builder by including Both Teams to Score No. Not only have the Three Lions stormed to the top of Group K courtesy of five successive wins, they have also silenced their opponents in each of those victories. What’s more, England also managed to keep the back door shut when blowing away Wales 3-0 in a friendly fixture at Wembley last Thursday night.
Not only did Latvia fail to fire against England earlier in the campaign, they also blanked when losing to both Serbia and Albania. As such, it’s difficult to make a case for the hosts landing a blow on England's watertight defence on Tuesday night.
