England's defeat to Spain was reminder of things we already learned at the World Cup in the summer: under Thomas Tuchel, England can compete with any opponent but will ultimately fall short against the very best.

There is no shame in that but it is a familiar story for a team that, in the past five years, have reached two European Championship finals, a World Cup semi-final, and lost them all.

Now England travel to Czechia who lost at home on Saturday to Croatia and are the kind of mid-tier team Tuchel's men would expect to beat. No surprise then to see the Three Lions strong favourites to win the game at 2/71.29 on the Betfair Sportsbook.

But how will Czechia v England play out? Will there be goals? Will England justify favouritism? Who will be the goalscorers?

Below are three pertinent stats from Opta and related bets.

Czechia v England Bet #1 - Back hosts to score twice

England have conceded 13 goals in their last six games, almost double the amount they had in their first 17 under Thomas Tuchel (7). They've conceded 3+ goals in their last two matches, last doing so in three in a row in February 1927.

Czechia v England Bet #2 - Back England to win goal heavy game

Czechia's 2-1 defeat to Croatia last time out ended a 19-game unbeaten home run (W14 D5). They last lost consecutive home matches in June 2016.

England have lost just one of their last nine meetings with Czechia in all competitions (W6 D2), though it was on their last visit to the nation in October 2019 (1-2).

Czechia v England Bet#3 - Back Bellingham and Kane double

Jude Bellingham has been involved in nine goals in his last nine international appearances (7 goals, 2 assists), more than any other England player since the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Harry Kane has netted four goals in six UEFA Nations League appearances since the start of the 2024-25 edition, more than he netted across the first three editions of the competition he played in (3 in 18 games - 2018-19, 2020-21, 2022-23).
