England U21 vs Germany U21 prediction: Euros repeat from Young Lions
England's dramatic win over the Netherlands saw them book a second consecutive European Championship final (Getty Images) England U21 vs Germany U21 betting tip: England to win & both teams to score - 10/3 Bet365 Nick Woltemade to score anytime - 5/4 Ladbrokes England take on Germany in the final of the U21 European Championship in Bratislava on Saturday night, with Lee Carsley's side looking to make it back-to-back Euros tournament wins (8pm, Channel 4).

Germany had a somewhat easier semi-final, beating France 3-0. They come into the match without a loss at the tournament, having also beaten England 2-1 in the final game of Group B on 18 June. The Germans boast top tournament goalscorer Nick Woltemade, though England's Harvey Elliott is also in the running for the player of the tournament, and he's been one of the catalysts for England's improved form since they entered the knockout phase. Despite Germany's previous success, football betting sites can find little to separate the two sides and the stage is set for a tense finale. England U21 vs Germany U21 Preview: Carsley leading Lions back to promised land Since losing to Germany in the last game of the group stages, England have beaten tournament favourites Spain while also coming through a testing semi-final against the Netherlands.

While England did lose 2-1 to Germany just over a week ago, there were four changes to the side that ended up beating Spain. The improvement in both results and performances since that game—combined with facing more difficult opponents—means that England may well be better prepared for this match than their German counterparts. The Young Lions have only kept one clean sheet so far, while Germany have managed two. At the other end, England have scored nine goals and Germany 15, so we expect goals in this one. Having had success with an England to win and both teams to score wager on betting sites in the semi-finals, we are hopeful lightning will strike twice and England bring home the trophy once more.

England U21 star Scott hails team-mate Anderson ahead of Euros semi-final
England U21 midfielder Alex Scott hailed teammate Elliot Anderson for his significant impact in helping the Young Lions progress to the semi-finals of the U21 European Championship. The pair have impressed as defensive midfielders in Lee Carsley's 4-2-2-2 system throughout this summer's tournament. Advertisement Anderson had a standout season for Nottingham Forest, providing eight goal contributions as the Reds secured European football for the first time since 1996. The Bournemouth midfielder was full of praise for his midfield partner, with the duo expected to start against the Netherlands in the semi-final on Wednesday night. '[It's been] really enjoyable,' he said. 'He's obviously had an amazing season at Forest. He's shown what he can do in the Premier League. 'Then, to come here, he's a massive player for us and he brings us so much experience, energy and his technical ability is very good as well. I've loved every minute of playing next to him in midfield. Advertisement 'We have a great relationship off the pitch and that comes on the pitch as well. He's a top, top player and we get along all the time.' Scott will be hoping to draw on experience gained from competing in the U19 European Championship back in 2022, where he scored with his first touch of the game in the semi-final against Italy. 'It's on a different scale,' he said. 'You're playing for the U21s now, and we've seen how good they were two years ago and what it took for them to win it. So I think that's almost the baseline for us. 'Like (Lee) Carsley said, we're a different group of players. We know what it takes to win, some of us, in the U19s. But we're just looking forward to it. We've been working so hard throughout the qualifying campaign, and we deserve to be here. 'Obviously, we're an England team. We go into every game with the mindset that we have the ability to win the game. So there's no reason why we're not going to do that tomorrow.'

Jack Hinshelwood out to ‘break the mould' with England U21s and claims Young Lions aren't weighed down by past failures
JACK HINSHELWOOD says England's young guns are out to 'break the mould' and finally end 60 years of hurt next summer. The Brighton star, 20, could get his hands on his first piece of silverware with the Three Lions on his shirt on Saturday in Bratislava. 3 3 But beating old foes Germany to record back-to-back U21 European Championship crowns is just the start of what Hinshelwood and his team-mates want to do. Along with the 2023 group Lee Carsley led to glory before them, which included the likes of Cole Palmer and Anthony Gordon, they are dead set on conquering the world. Hinshelwood said: 'We've got to remain humble. We're in the Under-21s. But we've got a great group and Lee always talks about how we need to break the mould of what people think of English football. 'We haven't won a major tournament for 60 plus years now. We know that we have amazing individuals in this group. Two years ago, they also had an amazing group and you see what them players are doing now. 'It's really inspiring for us and really gives us that extra motivation to want to do well and reach that level.' Legendary names - including the famous Golden Generation - have failed to deliver for the nation. However, Hinshelwood insists his generation is not weighed down by history. He said: 'No, of course not. The past is in the past and there's not much we can do about it. We're all looking to the future and there's a bright future.' Hinshelwood faces a huge year ahead - and not just on the pitch with Brighton and trying to catch Thomas Tuchel 's eye. He revealed last month that he and his girlfriend are expecting their first child. England and Spain stars in mass brawl after U21 Euro quarter-final And speaking of family, Hinshelwood himself comes from a huge footballing one. Great-grandfather Wally Hinshelwood, his grandad Paul, great-uncle Martin and his dad Adam, manager of National League York City and who will travel out to the final, were all pro players. Some say Hinshelwood was born to play the beautiful game - but hearing about all of his team-mates' journeys has helped create an unbreakable bond between the group. He said: 'I've learned so much from my family and speaking to the boys here, they've got amazing families and everyone's got different journeys. 3 'It's nice to hear how everyone has got to this point and it brings us closer together so yeah it's really nice. 'Sometimes we don't get to see each other as much but when you're away for a tournament you get to spend good quality time with these people and get to know them and you can build great bonds. We've got a great bond off the pitch and we're now showing it on the pitch. 'This is my first international tournament, so it's great being here and I've loved every second. To get to the final is amazing, but we know we've got one more job to do now and that's to bring it home.' Hinshelwood added: 'Right from the start we came in with a lot of belief that we can really do well in this tournament and go all the way. 'We probably didn't really show up until the quarter-finals. But these last two games we've really put in good performances and the results have followed. We've got one more big job to do now.' England's Under-21 Euros squad in FULL ENGLAND are looking to retain their status as Under-21 European champions this summer in Slovakia. Here is Lee Carsley's full squad for the blockbuster tournament: Goalkeepers: James Beadle (Brighton and Hove Albion), Teddy Sharman-Lowe (Chelsea), Tommy Simkin (Stoke City) Defenders: Charlie Cresswell (FC Toulouse), Ronnie Edwards (Southampton), CJ Egan-Riley (Burnley), Tino Livramento (Newcastle United), Brooke Norton Cuffy (Genoa), Jarell Quansah (Liverpool) Midfielders: Elliot Anderson (Nottingham Forest), Archie Gray (Tottenham Hotspur), Hayden Hackney (Middlesbrough), Jack Hinshelwood (Brighton and Hove Albion), Tyler Morton (Liverpool), Alex Scott (AFC Bournemouth) Forwards: Harvey Elliott (Liverpool), Omari Hutchinson (Ipswich Town), Sam Iling Jnr (Aston Villa), James McAtee (Manchester City), Ethan Nwaneri (Arsenal), Jonathan Rowe (Marseille), Jay Stansfield (Birmingham City)
