FINLAND VS ENGLAND PREDICTION
A significantly different looking England side is expected to the one we saw last Thursday night, a more balanced XI with the presence of an actual striker. After being stung by their loss at the hands of Greece, the Three Lions should respond strongly here against a Finland side they overcame comfortably last month at Wembley. Back England to secure victory in Helsinki by at least two clear goals.
