With the England U20 side getting the summer off to a bang by winning the World Cup, next up is the U21 side who are competing in the U21 Euros out in Poland. They open their account on Friday night in the tournament opener when they get to take on Sweden, who are actually the reigning European Champions at this level.
However, most of the side that won two years ago have gone on to the senior squad and so they are rebuilding. England have plenty of talent around their young squad and will look to ride the wave that the U20 side has created for English football this summer already. It’s a tough tournament with only the group winners guaranteed a place in the knockouts stage, so England have to come out of the blocks quickly.
Scoring hopes will be on Chelsea youngster Tammy Abraham and Ladbrokes have boosted him to score & England to win at up to 7/4 from a price of 9/4.
