North Macedonia vs England Betting Tips - BTTS

The Three Lions arrive in Skopje knowing that a point or better will secure a place in Pot 1 for the Euro 2024 draw at the start of December. 

England have enjoyed serene progress from Group C, picking up an impressive 19 points from seven matches. Gareth Southgate´s side were a little underwhelming however in Friday´s 2:0 win against Malta.

On the road, England have been a little less defensively sound than we have come to expect in recent years. The Three Lions have seen BTTS in three of their last five away matches while they have only managed to keep two clean sheets in their last eight internationals on the road. 

While North Macedonia can no longer qualify, the home nation will be keen to impress against the group winners, and they have shown they are capable of troubling the bigger nations in recent years. Blagoja Milevskiñ´s side have seen BTTS in seven of their last 11 internationals, including Friday´s 5:2 defeat in Italy. 

On home soil, six of North Macedonia´s last seven home matches have seen BTTS, while they have only failed to score in two of their last 11 fixtures.

With England looking less than stellar at the weekend, I fancy North Macedonia to at least get on the scoresheet on Monday. As such, I´m backing BTTS at an attractive price.

The visitors should still be expected to have too much quality, particularly when considering their 7:0 thrashing of North Macedonia at Wembley earlier this year. However, I expect a more competitive contest this time with both teams getting on the score sheet.
