Summary
England entered Wednesday's World Cup semifinal as a slight moneyline favorite at +170, with Argentina at +200 and the draw at +190 at FanDuel.
FOX Sports Research picked England to advance at -122, arguing Argentina's 13-game winning streak and 12-match World Cup unbeaten run masked shaky knockout-stage performances.
England reached the semis after comeback wins over Mexico and Norway, with Jude Bellingham scoring in consecutive knockout matches and both Bellingham and Harry Kane on six goals.
Argentina also survived a turbulent path, needing extra time against Cape Verde, a late 3-2 comeback over Egypt, and a 112th-minute Julián Alvarez winner against 10-man Switzerland.
The July 15 match in Atlanta is the nations' sixth World Cup meeting and first since England's 1-0 group-stage win in 2002.
