England vs Papua New Guinea Predictions


England should be too good for PNG, but the handicap might be beyond them. Instead I'm concentrating on the points market with over 44.5 predicted.

Dom Young has been a star for England at the World Cup and the wing can continue his tryscoring run.

  • England have won their last 7 matches.
  • England have seen 50+ total points in 4 of their last 5 matches.
  • England's Dom Young has scored 8 tries in 3 matches at the World Cup.
  • England have won their last 2 matches against Papua New Guinea.

Head to Head


England have beaten Papua New Guinea in both previous meetings, a 32-22 victory at the 2008 World Cup and a 36-6 success at the 2017 World Cup.

England Form


England got their tournament off to a winning start with a 60-6 demolition of a handy Samoa side in the opening weekend. 

Shaun Wane's side then proved much too good for France with a 42-18 victory to book their spot in the quarter-finals.

A 94-4 demolition of Greece sealed top spot in the group last weekend.

England Squad & Team News


Shane Wane has named a 19-man squad.

England have left out record tryscorer Ryan Hall in favour of the red-hot Dom Young.

Squad:  1 Sam Tomkins, 2 Tommy Makinson, 3 Kallum Watkins, 4 Herbie Farnworth, 6 Jack Welsby, 8 Tom Burgess, 9 Michael McIlorum, 11 Elliott Whitehead, 12 John Bateman, 13 Victor Radley, 14 Dom Young, 15 Morgan Knowles, 16 Matty Lees, 17 Mike Cooper, 18 Chris Hill, 20 Mike McMeeken, 21 Marc Sneyd, 24 Kai Pearce-Paul

Papua New Guinea Form


Papua New Guinea gave Tonga a mini-scare in their opening game of the tournament when losing narrowly 24-18 after conceding a try two minutes from time.

The Kumals recorded emphatic wins over the Cook Islands 32-16 and Wales 36-0 to finish second in the group and move into the quarter-finals. 

Papua New Guinea Squad & Team News


Squad: 8 Wellington Albert, 13 Jacob Alick, 18 Keven Appo, 23 Watson Boas, 9 Edwin Ipape, 24 Zev John, 1 Alex Johnston, 7 Lachlan Lam, 6 Kyle Laybutt, 3 Nene MacDonald, 12 Rhyse Martin (c), 10 Sylvester Namo, 19 Jimmy Ngutlik, 4 Justin Olam, 11 Nixon Putt, 15 Daniel Russell, 22 Jeremiah Simbiken, 20 Rodrick Tai, 16 McKenzie Yei
