Wednesday sees the first match under new England boss Fabio Capello, who's first match is against Euro 2008 co-hosts Switzerland at Wembley.
After the dismal reign of Steve McClaren, the appointment of astute tactician Capello was a welcomed one, and you can be sure that he will be determined to win his first game in charge.
With Capello's surprised selection policy, which has seen Aston Villa youngster Agbonlahor called up, and proven veteran Beckham dropped, just one game shy of his centenary cap, all eyes will be on Capello's new look England.

Capello's opening night will feature opposition so short of players that they have been able to pick only two strikers, one of whom is an uncapped teenager normally used as a substitute by his club.
The record of England and Switzerland matches shows they have played nineteen international games with England winning twelve and drawing four, with their last encounter finishing 3-0 to England.
With all the England players desperate to impress, bookies have priced them as favourites for this match, with Bet365 offering 1/2 on a win for the Three Lions. Switzerland have been priced at 5/1 to get an unlikely, but morale boosting win in preparation for Euro 2008.
