3rd Round Match 2; England vs Croatia and France vs Switerland
Today's match is a very tricky. First of all i expect a draw from 1 of the matches today. Trends from the past few matches have shown that there is at least a draw every 2 games with exception from yesterday and the first day. The problem is no one will expect a draw from France match and England match and i believe so too.
For France vs Switerland, everyone will bet on France and probably let 1 1/2 goals because on paper France seems like a much better team then Switerland in any way. This was also proven by the fact that England thrashed Switerland 3-0 in the last match. I must state that England was able to slaughter Switerland because they were one man down and had numerical advantage. Switerland had nothing to play for and seems almost impossible for them to qualify for the Last 8 places. They are like Russia who had only pride to play for and hopefully wont end up last in the group. On the other hand, France had not been performing as well as expected. Henry the ferocious striker in EPL is runing around like a headless chicken without a single goal to his name. All focus wil be on Zidane and his form to help France to secure a victory. France mathematically had already secured a place in the last 8 and only need to get a draw in this match. Hence it is unlikely that they will win by a large margin or end up a draw game.
The match between England vs Croatia is more unpredictable. Croatia were able to use psychological warfare to secure a draw or almost a win against the French. They are definitely not a weak team even though they have no Zidane in their squad. England need only a draw in this game to ensure that they can get at least a second spot in the group. My prediction thus is that this game could also end up in a draw game.
My final prediction is
England vs Croatia 1 - 1
France vs Switerland 1 - 0
