England have a four point lead at the top of World Cup qualifying Group I. They travel to Andorra who are in fifth place with three points and won't be going to Qatar next year. England have three more games to play after this match. Next week sees them host Hungary and then next month it's Albania at home and San Marino away. Two wins for England in the next week should be enough to win them the group. Gareth Southgate will play some of the fringe players in this match. Even a virtual reserve side can easily defeat Andorra who have aleady conceded 14 goals in this group. Over 90 minutes England are unbeaten in 16 games. Not since 2009 have they lost a World Cup qualifying game and 27 matches have been played since then. England won the reverse fixture 4-0 in early September.

Andorra at least have one win in this group. They beat San Marino 2-0 at home last month with Marc Vales scoring both goals. That ended a run of 16 games without a win since beating Moldova two years ago. Unlike San Marino, Andorra don't always lose heavily and 10 of their last 12 World Cup qualifying games played at home have had under 3.5 goals scored in them. In the last eight, only Hungary have scored more than twice against them. For all competitions, eight of the last 11 home fixtures have seen under 3.5 goals scored. Andorra are actually going for a third home clean sheet. England will of course win this game but in that 4-0 home win, three goals came after the 70th minute. A bet on under 3.5 goals is the suggested bet.
