Birmingham’s St. Andrew’s Stadium will host the match pitting European U21 champions England against Ireland U21 in the 2027 Euro U21 Championship qualifiers. The two nations are drawn in Group D, with England second and Ireland third. Let’s have a look at the prediction of the match.

Either of these sides will go top of the group with a win. For England, even a draw will be enough to take them above their next opponents, Slovakia.

There’s really no cause for concern at the England camp, with the team having a game in hand and three wins in three. While they’ve scored seven times in three matches, they haven't conceded, and a win gives them a two-point buffer.

It has been 17 years since these two nations last met. Back then in the Euro qualifiers, England handed Ireland identical 3-0 defeats home and away.

Ireland will be keen not to fall to England again, but then some results may be unavoidable. Ireland will bank on their strong start in this group, winning two of their opening three matches.

That stretched their undefeated streak to four matches. They, however, have only four wins in their last 12 matches. In four of their last nine matches, the Irish youngsters failed to score.

Away from home they registered two wins and lost twice in the last five.
