1/8 final – Colombia vs. England
1/8 final – Colombia vs. England

The 1/8 final of World Cup 2018 – Colombia vs. England will be held today. The match will begin at 22:00 Tbilisi time, Venue – Spartak Stadium, Referee – Mark Geiger from USA.

Prediction:  Colombia fell to a 2-1 loss to Japan in their first match, but recovered well to beat Poland and Senegal to progress as group winners. They haven’t been at their best, however, and the absence of James Rodriguez, even accounting for the form of Juan Quintero, is a blow.

England finished second in Group G, which should hand them an easier route to the semi-finals, but they mustn’t take Colombia lightly. Failure to take any threat from their South American counterparts seriously will likely result in their elimination from the last-16.

According to www.whoscored.com, of the eight upcoming matches, this is the hardest to predict. It could go all the way.
