There are many scenarios for Slovenia but only one wish: Let's go in the next round!

Slovenian football team is facing the hardest test in this World Cup so far. The opponent is big, but hurt England, which desperately needs a victory to advance in the final 16. Slovenia also needs victory to secure its position as 1st in group C.

As said there are many scenarios for Slovenia to advance in in this World Cup. First option is to win today game against England in Nelson Mandela Bay Staduim in Port Elizabeth. If Slovenia draws with England it still gets its position in final 16. If Slovenia loses, that is what everybody predicts, the other game between USA and Algeria has to end with a draw.

Slovenia have been one of the surprise outfits of the whole tournament. After a late 1-0 win over Algeria, Matjaz Kek's side stormed out to a 2-0 lead against the USA before ultimately settling for a controversial 2-2 draw.

There are no changes expected in Slovenia team from the side that looked great for 45 minutes against the USA.

 

However, a forward Nejc Pecnik is out of the tournament because of broken ankle suffered in the USA game in a clash with Dempsey.
