England are standing on the edge of the World Cup 2022 knockout rounds knowing that they can\u2019t afford an off night against Wales.<\/p>\n
The Three Lions have not formally qualified for the knockout rounds after two games, though they are more secure in the tournament than a glance at the Group B table may suggest.<\/p>\n
Gareth Southgate\u2019s men top the table with four points going into their final match, with Iran in second place with three points, USA sit third with two points and Wales languish at the bottom with a solitary point.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s still everything to play for across the group, with all four teams still in the hunt for qualification to the Round of 16.<\/p>\n
