Their form is pretty stunning, having won 13 of their last 14 competitive games, the only exception being a group stage defeat to France when they made widespread changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Norway will feel they have an excellent chance of upsetting the five-time champions and can draw on the fact they\u2019ve never lost to Brazil, claiming two wins and two draws from the four meetings, which includes a memorable 2-1 victory at the 1998 World Cup: current manager Stale Solbakken played at the tournament but didn\u2019t feature in that particular game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The statistics are getting rather silly for Erling Haaland now. His winning goal against the Ivory Coast saw him become the quickest player to score 60 international goals, accomplished in just 53 caps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Haaland has now scored in each of his last 13 competitive games for Norway, accumulating an eye-popping 25 goals during this stunning run, including five goals in his first three World Cup games (he was rested against France).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He now has his sights on becoming the first European player (and eighth in total) to score in each of their opening four games at the tournament since Italy\u2019s Christian Vieri in 1998 .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"690\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-1024x690.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1465206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-1024x690.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-768x517.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-1536x1035.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-2048x1379.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-396x267.jpg 396w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-297x200.jpg 297w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-89x60.jpg 89w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-150x101.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/30202250\/3EXETJ0-110x74.jpg 110w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mexico-vs-england\">Mexico vs England<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Mexico key stat:<\/strong> Mexico have lost just two of their 89 competitive games at the Azteca Stadium, and are unbeaten there in their last 22 competitive games.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>England key stat: <\/strong>Harry Kane (13) is one goal away from drawing level with German great Gerd Muller on 14 World Cup goals, which would move him into joint fifth on the tournament&#8217;s all-time scoring charts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/stats\/clubs\/mexico\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mexico<\/a> finally won their first knockout stage match since 1986 &#8211; when they last hosted the tournament &#8211; with a victory over Ecuador, which ended a run of seven knockout defeats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Confidence is high in the El Tri ranks as the co-hosts bid to reach their first quarter-final in 40 years. For starters, they are the only country to have won all four matches to nil, and could now become the second side behind Italy in 1990 to open up a World Cup with five straight wins without conceding. Meanwhile, England have conceded first in each of their last six knockout stage matches at major tournaments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, you may have heard that Mexico boast a superb record at the Azteca Stadium, where they have been defeated just twice in 89 competitive clashes, losing none of the last 22; 16 of which have been wins. On top of that, they\u2019ve won eight and lost none of the 10 World Cup games they\u2019ve played there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Julian Quinones has been in superb form with three goals and assists, meaning one more goal involvement would see him become the first ever Mexican player to be directly involved in 5+ goals at a single World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ<\/strong> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/mexico-vs-england-predictions-betting-tips-06-07-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mexico vs England: predictions, best bets, stats and odds<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Mexico forward Julian Quinones celebrates scoring against South Africa\" class=\"wp-image-1456872\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-90x60.jpg 90w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/06\/11221903\/3ENJ8DA-111x74.jpg 111w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, if there\u2019s one player who could burst the Mexican bubble right now it\u2019s Harry Kane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You do wonder where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/stats\/clubs\/england\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">England<\/a> would be without their skipper, who scored a late brace to rescue England in a dramatic comeback win against DR Congo. Kane (13) now has more World Cup goals than Pele (12) and needs one more goal to go level with Germany legend Gerd Muller (14) in joint 5th in the list of all-time World Cup scorers. Meanwhile, another brace would take him level with Ronaldo (15).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kane has scored three headers so far this tournament &#8211; two more than any other player &#8211; which has taken his total World Cup tally to four headers, one off Muller (5) and three behind Miroslav Klose\u2019s record of seven (statistics since 1966).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>England keeper Jordan Pickford is set to make history by equalling Peter Shilton\u2019s England record of 17 World Cup matches played. Kane will be just behind on 16, as will Marcus Rashford if he plays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, England have won each of their last four meetings with Mexico, and beat them in the only ever World Cup encounter back in 1966 en route to winning the tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-1024x667.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1465486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-1024x667.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-768x500.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-1536x1000.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-2048x1334.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-400x261.jpg 400w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-307x200.jpg 307w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-92x60.jpg 92w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-150x98.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/07\/01194256\/3EXX9PN-114x74.jpg 114w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/world-cup-2026-betting-tips-predictions\/\"><strong>World Cup predictions &amp; tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/outright-markets\/world-cup-outright-odds\/\"><strong>World Cup outright odds <\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/world-cup-2026-fixtures-results\/\"><b>World Cup fixtures &amp; results<\/b><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/world-cup-2026-betting-offers\/\"><b>World Cup free bets<\/b><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>England return to the field at the 2026 World Cup in the early hours of Monday morning (1am UK time) when they take on co-hosts Mexico in Mexico City, which promises to be a cracker.
