England U20 and Tunisia U20 will battle for three points in a 2023 FIFA U20 World Cup Group E fixture on Monday.
The Three Lions are making their 12th appearance in the FIFA U20 World Cup and first since winning the tournament in 2017. They booked their spot in the competition by winning the 2022 UEFA European Under-19 Championship.
England have not been in action since playing out a 1-1 draw against France in a friendly in March. Bashir Humphreys put them ahead in the 10th minute but his goal was canceled out by Alan Virginius' 43rd-minute strike.
Tunisia are making their third appearance at the junior World Cup and first since 1985. The Carthage Eagles finished in fourth spot at the 2023 Africa U20 Cup of Nations to secure their place in Argentina.

England U20 vs Tunisia U20 Prediction
England have a patchy record at U20 World Cup level, having made it out of the group stage just five times in 11 previous participations. However, they won a maiden crown at this level in their most recent appearance in 2017 and Ian Foster's side will be aiming to replicate the exploits of Phil Foden and co.
Tunisia, for their part, are outsiders in the tournament and are making their first appearance in almost 40 years.
England are favorites in the game and we are backing the Three Lions to claim a comfortable victory in addition to a clean sheet.
