Our Verdict
England’s away win at 1.44 represents the standout selection here. Thomas Tuchel’s side have won four of their last five matches, and their head-to-head record reads three victories from five meetings with Czechia. The hosts, by contrast, have lost three of their past five outings. Despite notable absences, England’s squad depth remains formidable, with Garner and Gibbs-White offering capable reinforcements. Backing over 2.5 goals at 1.75 also appeals, given England have netted 14 times across their last five fixtures. The away win looks solid value.
