World Cup 2022: Wales vs England head-to-head record
Wales and England square off at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium in the final round of Group B fixtures on Tuesday, with a spot in the knockout stages on the line.
Wales’ return to the World Cup after a 64-year hiatus has not been particularly stunning, as they risk being eliminated early with just one point from their first two games.
On November 21, Robert Page’s team came from behind to snag a 1-1 draw against the USA in their group opener. However, Iran stunned them last Friday with a 2-0 victory.
The Iranians pressured the Dragons for the whole of the game, but they finally gave up when Roozbeh Cheshmi and Ramin Razaeian scored in stoppage time after Wayne Hennessey had been sent off for a violent tackle on Porto attacker Mehdi Taremi.
With four points out of a possible six, England, who started their campaign with a 6-2 victory over Iran, enters Tuesday needing at least a draw to guarantee a spot in the knockout stages for a second straight year.
Gareth Southgate will be hoping for a much better performance from his team after they drew 0-0 with the USA in their second round of group matches. The England contingent appeared to boo their team after the Stars and Stripes outplayed them.
But given their stellar record against Wales, the Three Lions will bet on their chances of finishing the job and perhaps even winning in yet another eagerly anticipated battle of the Brits.
With 21 draws and an astounding 68 victories, England has gone unbeaten in 89 of their last 103 games against Wales. This includes a 2-1 victory in the teams’ first meeting in January 1879.
Wales, who are currently last in Group B and are fighting for their lives, must upset England to snap a run of six straight losses and earn just their 15th victory in the match’s history.
In May 1984, during the British Home Championship, Mark Hughes scored in the 17th minute to defeat Southgate’s team at the Racecourse Ground, giving them their most recent victory over the Three Lions.
While holding out for a 1-1 draw in Group 5 back in 1973, Page’s team enters Tuesday’s match against England having lost all but one of their previous six meetings.
Wales has also yet to defeat the Three Lions in a major competition after dropping each of their five meetings to prepare for the UEFA European Championship since November 1966.
