Jame's health is a huge concern. Colombia can sometimes be an unpredictable team. Difficult one to call. But given the losing h2h maybe they will be motivated to beat England for a first? I'll go out on a limb, Colombia 2-1.
They have Quintero if James isn't fit.
England have always screwed the pooch, one more R16 exit coming up now.

Pekerman is probably the best coach in the world in terms of creating and preparing teams, but not even average in managing the 90 minutes of a game. This hasn't change much since he coached Argentina in 2006.
England look on course to reach the semi finals
Colombia lack consistency over 90 minutes. There are spells where they look really good and at time just crash and burn.
However England could typically underestimate them which could be their undoing.

England are struggling to score from open play....6 out of their 8 goals have come from set-pieces or pens.
Now I have caught up on my sleep, don't need any more so please don't disappoint Kane, Falcao et al
Mina has been a weapon for Colombia on set pieces but I doubt he will score today, England will be more prepared for him. Anyway I think England will win, this is their best chance in ages to reach a WC final: not a single former WC Champion in their route til the final.
England have to seize this moment. They may not have expected to be in the mix but when the opportunity presents itself, ya gotta go for it.
James out is huge blow....however, this is MORE than made up by the fact that I'm wearing my Colombia warm-up which has been on-point the entire tournament. VAMOS COLOMBIA!
