England will be looking to secure their place in the World Cup knockout stages when they take on Ghana in their second Group L fixture. Given England's excellent performance against Croatia, we predict a 3-0 home win. The Three Lions made a statement in their opener, cruising to a 4-2 victory over Croatia in a match where they produced 22 shots, including 11 on target. Harry Kane scored a brace, while Thomas Tuchel's side showcased the attacking quality that makes them one of the tournament favorites. Tuchel is expected to continue his rotation policy, with Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka both pushing for starts. England's recent form has been outstanding, with eight wins from their last ten matches, 2.6 goals scored per game, and an impressive expected goals average of 2.28.
Ghana, meanwhile, left it late to defeat Panama 1-0 in their opening match, with Caleb Yirenkyi scoring a dramatic stoppage-time winner. While the Black Stars deserve credit for their resilience, they created relatively few clear-cut opportunities and now face a much tougher challenge. Goalkeeper Lawrence Ati Zigi is doubtful after suffering a muscle injury against Panama, which could be a major setback. Antoine Semenyo remains Ghana's main attacking threat, but Ghana's away form is concerning, having won just one of their last seven matches on the road while conceding 1.86 goals per game.
As England were excellent against Croatia and possess far greater quality across the pitch, Home Win should be considered, alongside England - 1.5 and Over 2.5 Goals (England average 3.0 total goals per game and looked extremely dangerous going forward).
This World Cup 2026 match will be played on Tuesday 23 June 2026 at 21:00.
