England vs Slovakia EURO 2024 preview

England are poised for a strong push into the EURO 2024 quarterfinals, facing Slovakia in a crucial match in Gelsenkirchen.

After a mixed start, including a narrow win over Serbia and draws against Denmark and Slovenia, the Three Lions emerged as Group C leaders.

Their slow start in the tournament, netting only two goals in the group stages, was offset by strategic finishes, avoiding an early knockout and a clash with top-tier teams in the Round of 16.

Slovakia, on the other hand, edged into the knockout rounds with a third-place finish in Group E, tied on points with the rest of their group but ahead on tiebreakers.

Their journey in one of the tournament’s toughest groups shows resilience, setting the stage for a challenging match against England.
