England had an excellent World Cup qualifying campaign. They passed through all their opponents without any problems. Then the friendlies started, but they were not convincing in them. They managed to win only 1-0 against New Zealand a few days ago, but prior to that, they lost 0-1 to Japan in a friendly in March and drew 1-1 with Uruguay. The last five matches of England had under 2.5 goals.
Poor results lately for Costa RicaCosta Rica did not qualify for the World Cup. We can summarize that things are not going well lately. This is evident from the results and the fact that they have won only one of their last 11 matches. Recently, they lost 1-3 to Colombia in a friendly, while in March they were defeated by Iran 0-5 in another friendly.
Prediction: victory for England and under 3.5 goalsEngland should still celebrate a victory, but I don't think it will be very convincing or high-scoring, as the recent matches of the English team have not been very prolific. Costa Rica does not currently seem to pose a threat to England.
