Today’s Betting Tips Japan vs England

World champion in 2011 and unfortunate finalist in 2015, Japan is one of the outsiders of this World Cup despite an average preparation. Moreover, for their entry in the contest in the competition, the Nippones were held in check by Argentina (0-0). The Japanese confiscated the ball (61% of possession) but they however had difficulty to be dangerous offensively (only 3 shots on target). Last Friday, Japan was fully relaunched in the qualifying race by taking over Scotland (2-1) with a better attacking realism.
England has been growing steadily for a few years now. 3rd at the 2015 World Cup and at Euro 2017, the Three Lionesses then won the SheBelieves Cup in early 2019.Aware of a good preparation overall, the team arrived with full confidence in France and started the competition with a short win against Scotland (2-1). On the second day, England secured their qualification by taking over Argentina despite a penalty stopped (1-0).

The staff for Japan vs England

For Japan, almost all players play in the national championship. We can still report the presence of Lyonnaise and Captain Saki Kumagai. The offensive duo should consist of Iwabuchi and Sugasawa, all of whom found the net on the last day. The starting 11 should also be renewed in the same way.
On the English side, Lyonnaise Lucy Bronze and Nikita Parris are indisputable holders. Otherwise, the players play in the big English clubs like Steph Houghton (Manchester City), Jill Scott (Manchester City), Karen Carney (Chelsea) and Ellen White (Manchester City). The attacking Taylor makes the beautiful days of Seattle in the United States. For this match, England could logically turn a little and especially let rest the dynamite Kirby who had received a blow during the first meeting.

Probable compositions for Japan vs England:

Japan: Yamashita – Shimizu, Kumagai, Ichise, Sameshima – Nakajima, Miura, Sugita, Endo – Sugasawa, Iwabuchi ..
