The Form – England v Brazil
England’s Form
England have been a consistent force on the international stage under Gareth Southgate for some time. Finishing fourth at the 2018 World Cup, runner-up at Euro 2020 and a Quarter-Final at the 2022 World Cup.
Most recently England comfortably confirmed qualification for Euro 2024 with an unbeaten record of 6 wins and 2 draws from their group with Italy, Ukraine, North Macedonia and Malta. During that campaign, they scored 22 goals for an average of 2.75 goals per game and their 4 conceded is 0.5 conceded per game.
Southgate has been called out for his perceived “safe” selection calls as England manager, but in his most recent squad uncapped defender Branthwaite was brought in, teenage sensation Kobee Mainoo was a late first-time call-up and Ivan Toney was brought back into the squad.

4 Wins, 1 Draw
Brazil’s Form
Brazil are coming into this fixture in poor form, they currently occupy 6 th place in their 2026 World Cup Qualifying Group holding onto an automatic spot by the skin of their teeth with their 7-point total only 2 points ahead of Paraguay in the playoff spot. They have 8 goals across those 6 games for an average of 1.33 goals per game and their 7 conceded is an average of 1.16 goals per game.
While Brazil commenced their 2023 season with a decent albeit unspectacular start with 3 wins and 2 defeats, those defeats came in friendly matches. However, the wheels fell off at the tail end of the year with a 1-1 draw against Venezuela before losing 2-0 against Uruguay, 2-1 against Columbia and 0-1 against Argentina. It should be taken into consideration the strong standard of each of those sides even if Brazil would’ve been expected to perform better.
Brazil ahead of the tournament have been hit by the withdrawal of Casemiro and Martinelli but will still have a strong squad with the likes of Guimarães, Vinícius and Richarlison to choose from.

Key Players To Watch
Jude Bellingham – England
The key man for Southgate come the summer on whether they earn Euro 2024 glory could be Jude Bellingham. His performances for Real Madrid this season have brought in 20 games and 9 assists from 31 matches, and you can expect him to be the driving force against Brazil.
Bruno Guimarães – Brazil
Come Saturday, the Newcastle midfielder will be the man tasked with contending with Bellingham in midfield. Bruno is an all-action midfielder who will be expected to come box-to-box breaking the lines through his passing and dribbling ability. He is also strong defensively and you might see him play a more reserved role at the weekend.
England vs Brazil Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: England 1-1 Brazil
England for all their detractors under Southgate are very consistent in their performance levels and recent results have shown that they could be a force to be reckoned with in Euro 2024.
Brazil have been in poor form in recent months, but it should be noted that they’ve played a higher quality of opposition to England and have been narrowly beaten in each game.
England are worthy favourites, but I think this down-turn in Brazil's form is overstated and they could earn themselves a draw.
Best Bet: BTTS and Draw @ 7/2
