UK Sports Minister Richard Caborn said there is "a very good chance" England will bid to host the 2018 World Cup.
A study looking into the costs and benefits will be made in the next few months before a possible bid in 2009.
"We will be looking at what our strengths and weaknesses are and will look to address those issues before we make a formal bid," added Caborn.
Australia is also considering a bid to stage the 2018 finals.
