- England have beaten Ireland in seven of their eight ODI meetings with Ireland; that defeat coming in March 2011 at the Cricket World Cup.
- Ireland have tasted defeat every time they have faced England on home soil in ODI cricket (four matches); including their only previous encounter at the Village in Malahide (2013).
- Ireland come into this game having tasted defeat seven times in a row at Malahide in ODIs; they won the toss on five occasions in that run.
- England have lost three of their last five ODI matches (W2), as many defeats as they recorded in their 16 completed outings beforehand (W13).
- England have won 74% of their completed ODI games since the start of 2017, the highest rate of any side in that time; Ireland have a 50% win rate across the same period.
- Eoin Morgan (England) has scored 269 runs at an average of 90 from his four ODI innings versus Ireland, only one player (Mahmudullah) has a higher rate against them (4+ knocks); the current England skipper played 23 ODIs for Ireland between 2006 and 2009.
- The last ODI encounter between England and Ireland in Malahide saw Eoin Morgan register his highest ever ODI score; 124* off 106 balls (September 2013).
- Eoin Morgan is set to go above James Anderson (194) into second in the list of all-time leading ODI appearance-makers for England, behind only Paul Collingwood (197) whilst Joe Root only needs three to go clear of Collingwood (5,092) as England's third-highest ODI run-scorer.
- Kevin O'Brien (Ireland) registered the fastest ever Cricket World Cup century when he faced England in 2011; getting to his ton in just 50 balls.
- England's Adil Rashid is one of only three bowlers (Kuldeep Yadav and Rashid Khan) to have taken 50 ODI wickets since the start of 2018; he comes into this game having recorded the second five-wicket haul of his ODI career (5/85 v Windies).
