England Look To Bounce Back Against Czechia

England are back in action this evening as they take on Czechia in their second Nations League group game, looking to pick up three points after a weekend defeat to Spain. 

Thomas Tuchel's side will be looking to make an immediate response, and the bookmakers clearly expect them to get back to winning ways, with England installed as heavy favourites.

There were plenty of positives to take from the Spain performance, with England's attacking play catching the eye even in defeat, but it was the fragility at the back that ultimately proved costly. 

Fixing that without losing the attacking threat that impressed against one of Europe's strongest sides will be the key challenge for Tuchel heading into tonight's game.

bet365's latest odds go 3/10 that England claim all three points this evening

Czechia17/210.5%

England's 3/10 price gives them an implied 76.9% chance of victory, reflecting both home advantage and the gap in quality between the two sides on paper.

Czechia are considerable outsiders at 17/2 (10.5%), a price that speaks to how comfortably England are expected to control proceedings even after their recent defeat.

Fixing The Fragility Without Losing The Attacking Edge

The performance against Spain will have given Tuchel plenty to work with going forward, even in defeat. 

England looked genuinely threatening going forward, showing the kind of attacking fluency that's been a work in progress since he took charge, and that's exactly the platform he'll want to build on against a Czechia side likely to sit deeper and look to frustrate.

Tonight's game against a Czechia side ranked well below England on paper offers a lower-risk opportunity to address those issues without the same pressure that came with facing Spain, and how the back line copes with whatever Czechia can offer will be closely watched regardless of the final scoreline.

Form Important For Nations League Group

Group form matters too at this stage of the Nations League, where an early stumble can leave a side chasing results in tougher fixtures later in the campaign. 

A comfortable win tonight would put England back on track and take some of the pressure off subsequent games, while anything other than three points would only add to the scrutiny on Tuchel's tactical approach. 

Czechia, for their part, will likely set up to frustrate rather than take the game to England, aware that keeping things tight for as long as possible represents their best route to a result on the road.

What the expert says...
England at 3/10 looks about right to me given the gulf in quality on paper, but I'll be watching the defensive shape more closely than the scoreline tonight. The draw at 17/4 isn't one I'd be rushing to back, but I wouldn't rule out Czechia nicking a goal on the counter if England get too expansive early on.
