England will be back to a friendlier environment when they host Andorra in their fifth game of the 2022 World cup qualifiers at Wembley Stadium. This comes after soldering to a 4-0 win over Hungary in front of a hostile crowd in Budapest. The Three Lions leads Group I with a maximum 12 points and will be favorites against fifth placed Andorra who just managed their first win in the group. England’s win over Hungary means they have no outright loss in their last 14 matches; the last time they lost within 90 minutes was against Belgium in November 2020. In their last five matches, England have scored two or more goals in four and kept three clean sheets. Harry Kane is now well settled and firing for club and country. He was among the scorers in Budapest, netting his fifth goal in five matches. As England go for a 26th unbeaten game in World Cup qualifiers, the Spurs forward will be a key man, having scored the opening goal in three of the last five in the competition. He has also scored the opening goal in two of England’s last three home matches in World Cup qualifiers. In their opening four matches in this group, England have conceded just one goal and scored 13. At home in such qualifiers, England have 11 straight wins and 23 wins in 25 matches.

Andorra come to the game having beaten San Marino 2-0 for their first win in Group I and second straight clean sheet after earlier drawing 0-0 with Gibraltar in a friendly. They’ve already conceded eight goals in this group and away to England doesn’t hold much promise. Andorra have never scored nor kept a clean sheet in their four matches against England. The last meeting was in 2009 and they received a 6-0 hammering, registering 16 goals conceded against England. Going to this game they have conceded three or more goals in three of the last five matches and have just one win in 17 matches. Andorra have seven losses in eight World Cup qualification matches, and have failed to score in six of the eight while conceding two or more five. They have 20 straight losses away from home in the qualifiers and are winless in 27.
