England 2-9 to progress from Group G

Gareth Southgate can have no complaints about England's World Cup group and Coral rate the Three Lions 2-9 to reach the knockout stage after being drawn alongside Belgium, Tunisia and Panama.

An early exit is rated 3-1 which highlights how simple - at least on paper - their task is, although finishing in top spot won't be easy with Belgium 5-6 favourites. England are 11-8 shots.

Southgate's side open up against Tunisia before tackling Panama with Belgium last on June 28. Some bookmakers have cut England but they are still available at 20-1 to win the World Cup.
