England will take on Andorra in the FIFA World Cup 2025 Qualifiers on Saturday, looking to continue their impressive form.

England have picked up two wins from as many matches in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifiers so far, and they will be full of confidence heading into the game vs Andorra this weekend. The Three Lions are undoubtedly the better team here, and they should be able to get all three points.

The away side have a formidable record, winning six of their last six matches against the opposition. It remains to be seen whether they can pick up a comprehensive win away from home.

Meanwhile, the home side have lost two of their World Cup qualifiers so far, and it remains to be seen whether they can bounce back strongly. Andorra will need a massive slice of luck to get something out of this contest.

On paper, the hosts are massive underdogs, and they will need to raise their performance levels to stand any chance of getting something out of this game. The Hard Tackle takes a closer look at the encounter ahead of the latest meeting between the two sides.

The England captain is our key player to watch out for, and he will look to make a defining impact in the final third. Andorra have a vulnerable defensive unit, and Kane will look to take advantage of their frailties.

The 31-year-old striker will look to find the back of the net and create opportunities for his teammates. He should be able to add to his tally of international goals this week. Andorra will struggle to contain the experienced English forward, and he is likely to punish them in the defence.

Prediction

Andorra 0-4 England

England are undoubtedly the better team here, and they will be the favourites heading into this game. They should be able to grind out a positive result away from home. The Three Lions have an excellent record against Andorra, and they are the far better team on paper.

Thomas Tuchel’s men have the confidence and the momentum with them, and they should be able to pick up a comfortable victory away from home. England are yet to concede in any of their last six meetings vs Andorra, and this is likely to be a walk in the park for them.
