Hungary hosts England in round 4 of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, September 2nd at Puskás Aréna (Budapest)
Hungary pleasantly surprised the football community at Euro 2020. In the group of death with Portugal, Germany, and France, the Hungarian national team lost only one match. This defeat remains the only one in the last five games (0-3 against Portugal). Let’s note that both sides managed to score only in three of the last five matches of the Magyars. Bookmakers give a coefficient of 1.60 on the fact that both teams won't score in the upcoming game. Interestingly, the Hungarians opened the scoring in three of the last five matches — against Cyprus (1-0), Germany (2-2), and France (1-1). As for the current qualification, Hungary started with a battling draw against Poland at home (3-3) and then gained away victories over San Marino (0-3) and Andorra (1-4).

England reached the decisive match of Euro 2020 but lost to Italy on penalties. The Three Lions have not been defeated in their last ten matches in regulation time. Moreover, England conceded in only three of them. Bookmakers give a coefficient of 1.84 odds for Hungary to score under 0.5 goals. As for the current qualification, no team took points away from the Englishmen. San Marino (5-0) and Albania (0-2) had no chances, and Poland was able to score a goal but also lost (2-1). I will note that goals were scored in both halves in each of the three qualifying matches with England’s participation.
England conceded in only 2 of their seven matches at the European Championship. Moreover, the Three Lions didn’t concede more than one goal during that period. Gareth Southgate’s men scored more than two goals in only one of their last five matches (a 4-0 victory over Ukraine). Although Hungary scored against the French and the Germans at the Euro, the team has on average 0.8 goals scored in the last five matches. Considering that the British concede an average of 0.4 goals per game, it will be extremely difficult for the hosts to score. Apparently, one should expect a restrained and unproductive game.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
