England take on Andorra in a Group K World Cup qualifier on Saturday and this should be a routine victory for the Three Lions.
England welcome 174th-ranked Andorra to Villa Park for a Group K World Cup qualifier on Saturday and while Thomas Tuchel’s side are overwhelming favourites to win, finding real value requires a deeper look.
The Three Lions only scraped a 1-0 win in June’s away fixture against Andorra and that performance highlighted the need for Tuchel’s side to sharpen up in matches where superiority should translate into goals.
We’ve put together a Bet Builder for Saturday’s clash, with captain Harry Kane expected to play another big part for England.

Another record looming for captain Kane
If selected, Harry Kane will earn his 108th cap and draw level with the legendary Bobby Moore.
England’s all-time leading scorer can mark the occasion in the best possible fashion, by finding the net.
Kane was the only man on target when these sides last met and has been in typically reliable form in front of goal this season, netting six goals in four appearances for Bayern Munich.
Leg 1: Anytime Goalscorer – Harry Kane @ 2/7
Opportunity arises for Madueke
With Bukayo Saka sidelined, the door is open for Noni Madueke to put in a strong performance and stake his claim for a World Cup spot.
Madueke assisted Kane in the previous meeting with Andorra and looks capable of repeating the trick.
He impressed for Arsenal in their defeat to Liverpool before the international break and, crucially, he has been a favourite of Tuchel’s since he took charge of the national side.
Leg 2: Player to assist 1+ goals – Noni Madueke @ 23/20
No threat from Andorra
While England underwhelmed in their 1-0 win against Andorra in June, the hosts never threatened and it’s difficult to see that changing at Villa Park.
The Three Lions’ defence will be shored up by the return of John Stones and sixth clean sheet in seven matches beckons for Tuche’s men.
England have also never conceded against Andorra in seven meetings, while the Tricolors have failed to score in their last six internationals.
Leg 3: Both teams to score – No @ 1/5
No fireworks expected
Andorra’s deep-lying 5-4-1 formation is designed to frustrate and it has proved effective in keeping score lines respectable, with nine of their last 11 fixtures featuring under 2.5 goals.
A win for England is inevitable, but Villa Park is more likely to see controlled dominance than a thrashing.
Leg 4: Total Goals 5.5 – Under @ 19/40
