England vs Slovenia prediction
On paper, England should have no trouble dispatching a Slovenia side who are only impressed in brief flashes. But the same can also be said about the Three Lions, who have underwhelmed across their opening two games.
With changes to the side, England should still have enough about them to see off Slovenia, but Benjamin Sesko has shown enough to prove a handful.
England to win, 2-1.
