UEFA Nations League B: Republic of Ireland v England – Preview, predictions, tips, offers and odds

Match Preview
England interim boss Lee Carsley oversees his first game in charge when the Three Lions open their Nations League campaign against the Republic of Ireland on Saturday.
England were relegated from the group of elite countries in 2022 and will be aiming to bounce right back, starting with a win in Dublin.
There will be no Gareth Southgate in the dug-out though following his decision to resign after England’s 2-1 defeat to Spain in the Euro 2024 final in July.
The Republic have won just three of their last 13 games and are underdogs here. They also have a new man at the helm with Heimir Hallgrímsson appointed two months ago. His name will send a shudder down the spine of England fans as he was in joint charge of Iceland, along with Lars Lagerbäck, when they knocked England out of Euro 2016 with a shock 2-1 win in Nice.
