Andorra vs England prediction, H2H and probable lineups - 7 June 2025
One of the fixtures of the third round of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers will take place on Saturday at the Cornella-El Prat stadium in Barcelona, where Andorra will host England. Here’s a bet tip for the outcome of this match with solid odds.
Match preview
Andorra’s national team continues to struggle in the 2026 World Cup qualifying cycle, having lost their opening two matches by an aggregate score of 0-4. Koldo Alvarez’s side traditionally opts for a defensive set-up with a deep line, but even a tightly packed block hasn’t spared them from regular breakdowns at the back. The 0-3 defeat to Albania was yet another stark reminder of the gulf in class between Andorra and even the mid-tier sides of European football.
Despite showing some progress in friendlies — with a win over San Marino and a draw against Malta — there’s no real evidence that Andorra can be competitive against top-tier national teams. The squad lacks players capable of dictating play or creating attacking chances, and physically they struggle to sustain a high tempo throughout the match. Against England, Andorra’s hopes will rest solely on defensive heroics and damage limitation.
England, meanwhile, have been in commanding form in their qualifying group, winning both opening matches without conceding a goal and scoring five. Gareth Southgate’s men have played with composure and efficiency: tactical flexibility, cohesion across all lines and confidence in every phase make them not just favourites for this match, but for the whole campaign. The 3-0 win over Latvia demonstrated that even with squad rotation, the Three Lions have enough quality to get the job done with ease.
England’s attack deserves special praise: the Kane – Foden – Saka trio is not only prolific but also highly creative, mobile and dangerous both in positional attacks and on the break. At the same time, the backline remains solid, which makes a prediction for another clean sheet all the more justified. Southgate also continues to make the most of set pieces — a weapon that could yield extra goals against the physically overmatched Andorrans.
Probable lineups
- Andorra: Iker Alvarez – Biel Borra, Cristian Garcia, Moises San Nicolas, Joan Cervos – Marc Rebes, Pau Babot, Marc Garcia, Jesus Rubio, Ian Oliveira – Ricardo Fernandez
- England: Jordan Pickford – Marc Guehi, Ezri Konsa, Reece James, Myles Lewis-Skelly – Declan Rice, Jude Bellingham – Bukayo Saka, Morgan Rogers, Anthony Gordon – Harry Kane
Match facts:
- England have won all five previous meetings with Andorra by an aggregate score of 20-0.
- The last match between these teams ended in a 5-0 victory for England.
- England have kept clean sheets in both qualifiers so far, scoring five goals in the process.
Prediction
The difference in class here is enormous: Andorra are essentially a semi-professional side, whereas England boast one of the strongest squads in world football. The Three Lions simply can’t afford to slip up in a fixture like this and will likely look to use this match to rack up points with authority. Our tip: England to win with a -3.5 handicap at odds of 1.88.
