Panama vs England Preview
Panama square off against England in this FIFA World Cup Group L encounter at New York/New Jersey Stadium (MetLife Stadium), with kick-off set for 17:00 on Saturday 27 June.
England lead the group on goal difference ahead of Ghana, while Panama have no chance of reaching the knockout stages after losing their opening two matches.
Houston Stadium, with its retractable roof to be closed on match day, will provide relief from the summer heat. Outside temperatures are forecast to be around 31°C (88°F) at kick-off, while conditions inside the stadium will be a comfortable 22°C (72°F).
Panama began their campaign with a 1-0 defeat to Ghana before losing by the same scoreline to Croatia at Toronto Stadium. Against Croatia, Los Canaleros had 42% possession and managed just one shot on target, highlighting their struggles in attack.
England beat Croatia 4-2 in their opening match before drawing 0-0 with Ghana at Boston Stadium. In the goalless draw against the Black Stars, Thomas Tuchel's side enjoyed 79% possession but managed only three shots on target.
England Ran Riot in Only Previous Meeting
The teams have met only once before, with England recording a 6-1 victory in the group stage of the 2018 World Cup.

England confirmed lineup (4-2-3-1): Jordan Pickford (GK), Jarell Quansah, Ezri Konsa, Marc Guehi, Nico O'Reilly, Elliot Anderson, Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka, Morgan Rogers, Marcus Rashford, Harry Kane.
Main Match Prediction
England -2.25 are available at -104 and we feel confident the favourites can secure a comfortable victory in this Group L clash. The odds look more than fair for this betting outcome.
Winning by three goals or more is never straightforward, but the underlying stats, xG data and performances so far suggest England are well placed to cover the handicap.
The Three Lions still have plenty to play for as they look to secure top spot in the group and stay ahead of Ghana on goal difference. We expect England to record a convincing victory against a Panama side that are yet to score and have already been eliminated from the tournament.
