North Macedonia.<\/p>\n<p>That said, whipping boys Malta (seven losses from seven games thus far) should be defeated by whatever side Southgate puts out so we can expect a bit of experimentation from the England boss.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ll still win at odds of around 1\/100 but, if there is an XI sent out which hasn\u2019t played together before, then the bookies\u2019 expectations of England scoring 5+ may be built on shaky ground.<\/p>\n<p>With England so short, it\u2019s the usual case of trying to dig out some value betting angles.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, we\u2019ve managed to do that below, with the best bet arguably the first half to be the highest-scoring half of this game.<\/p>\n<p>Read on to find out exactly why\u2026<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/thesun-bet-on-england-vs-malta.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h2>England vs Malta key stats<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Twenty-one of Harry Kane\u2019s 61 England goals have come from the penalty spot.<\/li>\n<li>Kane has scored seven goals in Euro 2024 qualifying so far. Only Romelu Lukaku (10) and Cristiano Ronaldo (9) have more.<\/li>\n<li>Bukayo Saka has scored four goals in his last two Wembley appearances.<\/li>\n<li>Malta captain Steve Borg has been shown a card in five of his last 10 internationals.<\/li>\n<li>Malta have lost all seven qualifiers in the current campaign, five of them without scoring, including the reverse fixture which England won 4-0.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>England vs Malta best bets<\/h2>\n<p>Find our best bets for the England vs Malta game below. Odds for the bets are provided by the best sportsbooks per our expert reviews. Odds in the bettings tips are subject to change.<\/p>\n<h3>England to score a penalty (Spreadex) <\/h3>\n<p>Malta have conceded four penalties in their seven qualifiers so far and one suspects the ball will be in their area quite a lot in this match.<br \/>England won plenty themselves \u2013 five in their six qualifiers, scoring them all. There were two given in the reverse fixture.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve also got a referee used to pointing to the spot. Luis Miguel Bruno Godinho has given five in his five Portuguese league games this season, while last season 20 of his 35 games in all competitions featured a spot-kick.<\/p>\n<p>Harry Kane to score a penalty looks good if you can get a price (and he actually starts) but with no such market available at the time of writing, England to score a penalty will do just fine at 8\/5.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u26bd Back England to score a penalty at 8\/5 at Spreadex \u26bd<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>First half the highest-scoring half (bet365) <\/h3>\n<p>This smacks of a match where there will be a raft of experimental changes either at halftime or, more likely, after about an hour so it would be no surprise to see a disjointed England later on.<\/p>\n<p>They got things done early in the reverse fixture in which they led 3-0 at halftime before netting only one more goal after the break.<\/p>\n<p>England, who still need a strong result as they chase a Euro 2024 seeding, have actually seen this bet land in four of their six qualifiers so far, while for Malta it\u2019s four of seven.<\/p>\n<p>Anything around the 2\/1 mark looks good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u26bd Back first half to be the highest scoring half at 15\/8 at bet365 \u26bd<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h3>Marc Guehi to score (<span>Sky Bet<\/span>)<\/h3>\n<p>With England already qualified, Gareth Southgate will likely look at a few fringe players in this one and so it\u2019s hard to be confident about who will start.<\/p>\n<p>However, Guehi didn\u2019t start either of last month\u2019s two internationals so could be given his chance at centre-back here, especially given the absence of John Stones and Lewis Dunk through injury.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s been a set-piece target for Crystal Palace in recent weeks, getting a number of shots away, and as long as Harry Maguire doesn\u2019t start, England will need to find an aerial threat that Guehi is capable of providing.<\/p>\n<p>In a market where so many players are a short price, Guehi may be worth an interest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u26bd Back Guehi to score at any time at 9\/1 with Sky Bet \u26bd<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>\ud83d\udcfa\u00a0How to watch England vs Malta<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Location<\/strong>: Wembley Stadium, London<\/li>\n<li><strong>Time<\/strong>: Kick-off is at 19:45 GMT on Friday, November 17<\/li>\n<li><strong>Where to watch<\/strong>: Televised live in the UK on Channel 4.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Remember to gamble responsibly<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>A responsible gambler is someone who:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Establishes time and monetary limits before playing<\/li>\n<li>Only gambles with money they can afford to lose<\/li>\n<li>Never chase their losses<\/li>\n<li>Doesn\u2019t gamble if they\u2019re upset, angry, or depressed<\/li>\n<li>Gamcare \u2013\u00a0www.gamcare.org.uk<\/li>\n<li>Gamble Aware \u2013\u00a0www.begambleaware.org<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Find our detailed guide on responsible gambling practices here.<\/p>\n<p>For help with a gambling problem, call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 or go to\u00a0www.gamstop.co.uk\u00a0to be excluded from all UK-regulated gambling websites.<\/p>\n<h2>Most read in Betting<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/thesun-weekend-accs-deal-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>International football accumulator tips for this weekend (17-19 Nov 2023)<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/TOB-DP-World-Tour-Championship-COMP-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>DP World Tour Championship golf tips, free bets \u2013 Best sign up offers<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/thesun-best-football-betting-sites.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>Check out the UK&#8217;s best football betting sites including odds &#038; offers<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/thesun-highest-payout-casinos.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>Highest payout online casinos AND the fastest paying sites in UK revealed<\/h3>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/betting\/24759723\/england-vs-malta-betting-preview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ENGLAND will bid to wrap up the top spot in their Euro 2024 qualifying group on Friday night but what<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":188924,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
