England U19 vs Wales U19 prediction 14.10.2023

• Competition: EURO U19 Qualifiers, First stage
• Date: Saturday, 14th October 2023
• Kickoff: 14:00 UK / 15:00 CEST
• Venue: DG Arena LjeÅ¡kopolje (Podgorica)

The second round of the first stage EURO U19 Qualifiers will occur on Saturday afternoon. The match will be held in Montenegro, on a neutral pitch, between neighboring countries England and Wales.

England’s journey in the EURO U19 took a turn for the worse after their victorious performance in Slovakia in 2022. They were unable to secure a spot in the previous EURO U19 tournament, finishing second in Group 7 of the second stage qualifiers, just one point behind Iceland U19. Their current campaign began on a disappointing note when they played against the underestimated Montenegro, resulting in a goalless draw.

In the previous year, Wales U19 was unable to progress beyond the first stage of the Qualifiers, securing a 3rd place in group 4 alongside Ireland U19, Hungary U19, and Gibraltar U19. The Qualifiers for the upcoming EURO U19 commenced with a goalless draw against Austria U19.

England U19 vs Wales U19 pick: Under 2.5 goals

Although we lack sufficient game data to fully analyze these two teams, it is clear that England appears to be the stronger team on paper. However, based on their performance in the first game of the competition, we are not confident enough to place a bet on England with a -1.5 / -2 AH. Instead, we believe that betting on under 2.5 goals is a much safer option.

Wales U19 will likely be content with a draw and will adopt a defensive strategy. Securing a point in this match would put them in a favorable position ahead of the Montenegro game. Additionally, in five out of their last six games, Wales U19 remained below this threshold. The only exception was when they played against Gibraltar U19, one of the weakest teams in Europe.
