England are back in action with another important clash in Group B of the 2022 FIFA World Cup as they take on Gregg Berhalter's USA side at the Al Bayt Stadium on Friday.
England vs USA Preview
The USA named a young squad going into the World Cup and were impressive in their first game of the competition. The Stars and Stripes gave a good account of themselves against Wales this week but were held to a 1-1 draw.
England have become one of the favorites to win the World Cup after their stellar 6-2 victory against Iran and should be able to top their group. The Three Lions need another victory to assure themselves of a place in the knock-out stages and will need to be at their best against a strong USA side.

England vs USA Prediction
England have named one of the most well-rounded squads at the 2022 FIFA World Cup and their depth came to the fore against Iran. Bukayo Saka and Harry Kane were in impressive form on the day and will look to find the back of the net in this fixture.
The USA can pack a punch on their day and have troubled England at the World Cup in the past. England are the better team at the moment, however, and hold the upper hand going into this game. We expect the Three Lions to secure all three points.
Prediction: England 2-1 USA
