England conclude their World Cup preparations with a friendly against Costa Rica as Thomas Tuchel's side look to build momentum ahead of their tournament opener against Croatia. As England want this win more than Costa Rica, we predict a routine 3-0 home triumph. The Three Lions have won seven of their last ten fixtures, scoring 2.2 goals per game while conceding just 0.5. Their defensive record has been particularly impressive, with seven clean sheets in their last ten outings and both teams scoring in only 20% of those matches. Harry Kane is expected to spearhead the attack, while Tuchel still has plenty of quality available despite the absences of Morgan Gibbs-White, Cole Palmer, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Phil Foden.
Costa Rica, meanwhile, head into the match after a 3-1 defeat to Colombia and have struggled for consistency throughout the past year. Los Ticos have won only one of their last ten matches and average just 0.90 points per game. Away from home, Costa Rica are without a victory in their last seven matches, collecting only 0.57 points per game while conceding 2.0 goals on average. Alvaro Zamora and Cristopher Nunez are both pushing for starts, but the visitors face a difficult challenge against one of the strongest defensive units heading to the World Cup.
England have kept clean sheets in 70% of their last ten matches, with Costa Rica struggling offensively away from home. Therefore, England to Win to Nil is our main betting tip, alongside England to Win Both Halves and Harry Kane to Score.
This match will be played on Wednesday 10 June 2026 at 21:00.
