As the World Cup prepares to kick off in Canada, Mexico, and the USA, ITV pundits have shared their predictions for the tournament. Roy Keane has voiced his concerns regarding England's defensive capabilities, suggesting that this weakness could prevent them from advancing deep into the knockout stages. He believes that France, Spain, and Argentina are the teams to watch for the title. Ian Wright remains optimistic about England's chances, citing their experience and talent, particularly with Harry Kane, but acknowledges the pressure of expectations. Gary Neville, while hopeful, warns that fatigue and the heat could hinder England's performance, predicting they might not progress beyond the quarter-finals. Other pundits, including Karen Carney and Patrick Vieira, also favor France as the likely champions, while expressing confidence in England reaching at least the semi-finals. For Scotland, the consensus is that escaping their challenging group would be a notable success. Overall, the pundits' insights highlight both the potential and the pitfalls facing England as they aim to end a 60-year wait for World Cup glory.
