England Vs Iran: Preview
Most people probably believe that England’s World Cup opener against Iran will be a fairly routine win for the three lions. They breezed through qualifying for Qatar 2022 with the greatest goal difference in the group stage of European qualifications, scoring 39 goals and conceding just three in the process.
The Three Lions advanced to the semi-finals in 2018 before reaching the final of the rearranged Euro 2020 campaign last year. Gareth Southgate’s team will be confident that they can start their quest with three points, but on Monday, they face a potentially challenging test.
Iran also had a strong qualification run, winning eight out of ten games in the third round of Asian qualifying while conceding just four goals. They are ranked 20th in the most recent FIFA rankings, ahead of teams like Serbia, Morocco, and Poland.
It was far from ideal for their preparations since Dragan Skocic unexpectedly left and was replaced as Team Melli’s head coach by Carlos Queiroz just two months before the World Cup, who he had led Egypt to the Africa Cup of Nations final earlier in the year.
