Dream11: BUL vs ENG Euro 2020 qualifiers prediction, team news
Dream11: England take on Bulgaria in a Euro 2020 qualifier to secure qualification to the tournament next year. Here is the team news and a predicted line-up.
England are set to face Bulgaria at the Stadion Vasil Levski, Sofia in a Group A tie of the Euro 2020 qualifiers on Monday night. England were handed their first defeat in the group stages on Saturday when they faced Czech Republic. A win here would see them qualify for the Euro 2020 next year, before the next international break. Meanwhile, Bulgaria had a promising draw against Montenegro where despite failing to find the back of the net, they looked threatening in front of goal. Their qualification hopes are over and they might just be looking to cause an upset at home. Here is the team news with a predicted Dream11 line-up.
Dream11 BUL vs ENG
England have won four and lost one, having played five games so far. They have managed to score 20 goals and have conceded five goals along the way. They have beaten their opponents 4-0 when they met back in September, with Harry Kane scoring a hat-trick. Gareth Southgate must be, however, pondering a change in the system and personnel as England struggled for creativity in their last game. James Maddison, who remains out with an injury would have been a great addition. Tottenham's Harry Winks might come into the side after Declan Rice's underwhelming show in the last game. Also, radical changes are expected at the back for England with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez and Ben Chilwell hoping for a start.
Bulgaria, haven't had a single victory yet in the Euro 2020 qualifiers. They have so far drawn thrice, losing the other three. They have scored a paltry five goals; having conceded 11 along the way. Their draw against Montenegro on Saturday saw them take 16 shots on goal which must be a positive for manager Krasimir Balakov. Balakov lost two players to injury ahead of the last week’s fixture, with experienced defenders Strahil Popov and Vasil Bozhikov withdrawing from the squad. Meanwhile, Georgi Kostadinov is likely to start to add some creativity to the Bulgarian attack.
BUL vs ENG: Predicted Dream11 line-up
Jordan Pickford, Ben Chilwell, Petar Zanev, Harry Maguire, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Harry Winks, Georgi Kostadinov, Ivelin Popov, Jadon Sancho, Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling
