England can take a huge step towards Euro 2012 qualification when they play host to Wales at Wembley.
If England get a win or draw against their British rivals, they will need only one point in their final game at Montenegro to wrap up qualification.
Wales picked up their first points of this qualifying campaign with an impressive 2-1 win over Montenegro last Friday. England won 3-0 in Bulgaria on the same day, with Gary Cahill opening the scoring and Wayne Rooney adding a brace.
Steven Gerrard and Jack Wilshere remain sidelined with injury for England, while Leighton Baines, Darren Bent and Micah Richards are also ruled out.
Young Manchester United defender Chris Smalling played right back in the win in Bulgaria, and he could be handed the task of marking Wales’ star player Gareth Bale.
England manager Fabio Capello singled Bale out as a particular threat in a pre-game press conference. “We need to be very careful every time he receives the ball,” Capello told BBC Sport.
Defender James Collins will return from suspension for Wales, while Jack Collison has recovered from a stomach problem.
Craig Bellamy and David Vaughan will be missing for the Welsh, the pair are suspended after picking up yellow cards in the Montenegro win.
