World Cup 2018: Predicting the Round of 16 Matches

#3 England vs Columbia

2014 World Cups Golden Boy will look to recover in time to lead his team to an important victory.

Both the teams know that an easy draw awaits the winner of this tie but getting out on top at the end of this one will prove to be difficult for both these teams.

Columbia and England were exceptional in the second round of the group stage but the other two matches proved to be warning signals for both.

England's main problem is their goalkeeper as Pickford lacks the experience required at this level which was on show in the match vs Belgium where he was at fault as Belgium won 1-0.

Columbia, on the other hand, is a well-balanced side but they are sweating over the fitness of their main man and the start of the last world cup, James Rodriguez.

This will prove to be a highly competitive game as two highly unpredictable sides meet in this round of 16 tie.

Prediction- A 2-1 win for Columbia.
