Recent home/away form

England

England's recent home form presents an intriguing mix of results, with a slight lean towards positive outcomes. In their last six home games, they've managed three wins, two draws, and only one loss, showcasing resilience on their home turf. Defensively, England has been particularly strong, conceding only three goals in these six matches and keeping three clean sheets, resulting in an impressive 0.5 goals conceded per game. Their attacking output has been modest but consistent, scoring 8 goals across the six games for an average of 1.33 goals per match. Interestingly, two-thirds of these games have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards tighter, lower-scoring encounters. While there are no extended winning or losing streaks to note, the 3-0 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina stands out as the highest-scoring game in this period, highlighting England's potential for more decisive victories when in form.

Their goal-scoring average of 1.17 goals per game away from home is respectable, while their defensive record of conceding just 0.83 goals per game is impressive. The majority of their away games (67%) have been low-scoring affairs with under 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards tighter, more controlled matches on foreign soil.
