England play Moldova this Friday 6th September, with the kick off at 8pm and the match being shown live on ITV1. It is vital that England get the 3 points in this World Cup qualifier, having drawn 3 matches already in the group. England have already played Moldova once in the group, winning 5-0 in Moldova last September and it is not expected that Moldova will put up too much opposition this time.
England 1/14 (BetVictor)
Moldova 40/1 (Coral)
Draw 12/1 (Bet365)
The bookies have priced England up as massive favourites and rightly so, England have won their last 3 meetings with Moldova at an aggregate score of 12-0, so we are expecting another relatively easy win here.
Daniel Sturridge 10/3 (Bet365)
Jermain Defoe 4/1 (Bet365)
Danny Welbeck 4/1 (Bet365)
Rickie Lambert 5/1 (Bet365)
Theo Walcott 5/1 (Skybet, Ladbrokes)
Frank Lampard 6/1 (Various Bookies)
Steven Gerrard 7/1 (Coral)
Ashley Young 8/1 (Skybet, Ladbrokes)
James Milner 12/1 (Paddy Power)
Leighton Baines 14/1 (Various Bookies)
Wayne Rooney is injured with a bad cut to his head, so the main striking berth should be taken by the in-form Daniel Sturridge he is carrying an injury though so we advise caution on bets on him until the team news is finalised.
We like Danny Welbeck here, he has a good knack of getting important goals for England, has started the season in very good form and looks to be fit unlike some of the others.

Looking at the last 3 fixtures between England and Moldova, they have ended 3-0, 4-0 and 5-0 in that order, so if you are looking for England to carry on that pattern then go for a 6-0 win at 22/1 with Sportingbet!
Aside from the 5-0 mauling to England, Moldova have actually fared quite respectably in the group, with their last result being a 1-1 draw with Poland and they only lost 2-1 to Ukraine and 1-0 to Montenegro. So they are by no means the whipping boys of the group, so it might pay off to go for a low-scoring England win. England are also not necesarily the most solid defensively with only one clean sheet in their last 8 games – that being against San Marino, so we are going to recommend the following correct-score bets:
1pt on 3-1 to England @ 18/1 (Ladbrokes)
1pt on 2-0 to England @ 11/2 (Coral)
1pt on 2-1 to England @ 20/1 (BetVictor)
