This remains one of true minnows of European football and it's not a side that can do some giant killing or even remain undefeated against a top side. There is not much else we can say about Malta. In the reverse fixture in Malta, this team lost cleanly 0-4 to England in June. This includes defeats to North Macedonia and Ukraine, as even in those easier matches Malta couldn't do anything. Malta has so far lost all seven of their Group C fixtures, and conceded 18 goals in the process. Don't expect a stellar outing by England here, but one thing we can expect is goals, purely for the fact that each player will seize the opportunity to shine. Undoubtedly, some young players will get their chances here, and one of them will play a good game against the lowly opposition. This team just beat Italy 3-1 in October but that was with Jude playing a perfect game, and now it will be Jack Grealish who will be tasked with doing the most work and trying to create something from the left wing.
That means we'll be watching the usual England team that we've been watching before Jude came to the scene. UEFA European Championship - Qualification, Round 8Įngland will be without Jude Bellingham who is still nursing a shoulder injury that isn't as benign as we all hoped.
