Wales are effectively playing for pride when they face old rivals England in the Ahmad bin Ali Stadim on Tuesday night. Defeat at the hands of Iran means the Dragons need to hammer Gareth Southgate's side and hope that Iran and the USA draw their game.
Rob Page's side might not have much left to offer after that disastrous defeat to Iran, in which keeper Wayne Hennessy was sent off. It is, therefore, no surprise that England are red-hot favourites at 9/20 with Betfred, while Wales are 7/1 to cause the upset.
Page potentially has a big decision to make regarding his big two players - Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey, neither of whom stepped up to the plate when they were most needed against Iran. Dropping one or indeed both to the bench and bringing in fresh legs might just prove a masterstoke for all that it would ultimately be quite controversial.
Whoever Page goes with, the chances are it won't be enough to get the win even if England are as subdued as they were against the USA.
Gareth Southgate has a host of really good options if he decides, as looks likely, to freshen things up for this fixture. The likes of Marcus Rashford, Jack Grealish and Phil Foden could all come in and give the Three Lions a major lift after that disappointing draw on Friday night.
England remain in charge of this section and ultimately look set to sail into the knockout stages of the competition but there must be a good chance that they can do so by keeping a clean sheet against Wales.
Harry Maguire may have many detractors but he's been a beacon at the back for England in both games so far and the Manchester United man can lead his side to a clean sheet in this game.
Wales vs England Prediction
Despite being under the pump for larege parts of the game, England defended well against the USA and Wales' might just struggle to break down the Three Lions, especially with the minority of possession.
If England get their noses in front then this is likely to be a done deal and the 13/10 about the Three Lions winning without conceding looks a solid wager.
Wales vs England prediction: England to win to nil - 13/10
