Mexico Takes on England in the World Cup: Expert Preview, Predictions, and Confirmed Lineups
Mexico is set to face England in the World Cup round of 16 at the Estadio Azteca. The host nation has been perfect so far, topping Group A without conceding and defeating Ecuador 2-0 in the round of 16. England, meanwhile, reached the knockouts after bypassing DR Congo, courtesy of Harry Kane's brace.
The Three Lions will arrive in Mexico City just 48 hours before the match, giving them little time to acclimate to the high altitude. Mexico's unified unit, buoyed by a remarkable atmosphere, will pose a significant challenge to England. The hosts may retain teenage sensation Gilberto Mora in their midfield, following his impressive performance against Ecuador.
Mexico's predicted lineup includes Rangel, Sánchez, Montes, Vásquez, and Gallardo in defense, with Lira, Romo, and Mora in midfield, and Alvarado, Jiménez, and Quiñones in attack. England, on the other hand, may be without Reece James due to a hamstring injury, with Ezri Konsa potentially replacing him at right back. The visitors' predicted lineup features Pickford in goal, with Konsa, Stones, Guéhi, and O'Reilly in defense, and Madueke, Bellingham, and Gordon in midfield, supporting Kane up front.
The match will be broadcast on various networks, including Fox Network, fuboTV, and Telemundo, as well as Canal 5 Televisa, TUDN, and Azteca 7 in Mexico. England will need to overcome the physical conditions and Mexico's threat to advance to the next round.
