In the early morning of July 1, Beijing time, the two games of the European Cup 1/8 finals are about to start, England vs. Slovakia, Spain vs. Georgia, let's take a look at the latest situation of these four teams:

England vs Slovakia: 0:00 a.m. on July 1

What's new:

Previously, it was rumored that Foden, who temporarily left the team due to internal conflicts in the team, has returned to Germany to join the England national team, and he left the team to return to London because of the birth of his third child, not the "failure to win the heir" ridiculed by fans, and there is no discord with manager Southgate, Foden's return gave the team a reassurance, although he did not perform well in the group stage, neither goals nor assists, and there is some subtle relationship with Bellingham, but Foden, who has just given birth to a child, can be said to be full of fighting spirit, Scrappy, he will certainly want to score to celebrate the birth of his child, and if England win the title, Foden will be on the back of the picture.

In addition, Gordon, who came off the bench in the final round of the group stage, said before the game that he seemed to be able to get a start, he said that his advantage is very direct, fast, and can be a nightmare for opponents, and as one of the few surprises in the group stage, Gordon can get Southgate's favor, it will still be an unknown, Gordon said he is ready. Whether off the bench or as a starter, Gordon is an uncertain factor for England's opponents.

The Slovakia coach said in a press conference before the game that England were unbeatable before the round of 16 and gave England a lot of high hats. The intention of this move is very obvious, and it may have unexpected effects to meet it with a low profile. Karzona also mentioned that they have to make the most of any weaknesses in England and that they have to keep clean and that the England squad is worth 10 times as much as Slovakia, so they can't afford to make mistakes. The Slovakia boss's intentions are clear, they will adopt a conservative approach to the game and try to exploit the counter-attack to their advantage.

Initial Estimate:

The referee for this match was Umut Meler from Turkey

The two teams have met in the last 6 times, and England have won 5 and drawn 1 to remain unbeaten.

England starters: Kane, Foden, Bellingham, Saka, Rice, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Kieran Trippier, Guehi, Stones, Walker, Picke Foden

Slovakia starters: Dubravka, Pecarik, Vavro, Skrinha, Hanko, Duda, Schranz, Bozenik, Haraslin

Spain vs. Georgia: 3 a.m. on July 1

Injuries:

Spain's three main defenders Carvajal, Lenorman and Vivian all received yellow cards in the group stage, if this game is yellow again, the next game will be suspended, facing the weak gap in strength Georgia, Spain will not rule out the possibility of rotating the backline, after all, the action of the three main defenders will be affected, and the 1/4 finals Spain will play against strong opponents.

Fortunately, Rodri, who was previously suspended, is close to returning for this campaign, and Georgia is even worse, their main midfielder Mekwabishvili was yellow against Portugal, and he also received a yellow card against the Czech Republic, so he will be absent for the crucial game against Spain, which is not good news for Georgia. Thankfully, their goalkeeper made 21 successful saves in the group stage, the most in European Championship history.

History of the two teams:

Spain and Georgia have played each other 7 times in history, Spain has an absolute advantage of 6 wins and 1 loss, and Spain has never lost to Georgia in official matches, and the two teams are in the same group in the European preliminary stage, when Spain beat Georgia home and away. Now that Spain is in high morale and in excellent condition, Georgia may not be able to cope. The referee for this match is from France's Legetier, and the assistant referee, as well as the fourth official and VAR referee, are all from France, and it is unclear whether this will affect Spain, after all, both teams are in the top half of the death zone.

Initial Estimate:

Spain: Carvajal, Lenormand, Laporte, Cucurella, Pedri, Rodri, Ruiz, Morata, Yamal, Williams

Summary: Although England performed poorly in the group stage, it is unlikely that they will lose in the 1/8 finals. Spain can't find a reason to lose, the knockout stage of the European Championship is the real beginning, and the dull tacit understanding of the group stage should not appear.
