Good morning. Amy Lawrence will be online at midday to answer your questions about this weekend's football.
San Marino are unlikely to come away with anything other than a heavy defeat tonight. Even Giampaolo Mazza, their likeable manager, is keeping a lid on his expectations: "The only thing certain is that we will lose," he said. "We will play a very defensive game and try and limit the chances for their strikers. The number of goals [we allow] will depend on our performance and the last few minutes of the game, when we tend to concede more."
Were San Marino to pull off an almighty shock at Wembley tonight, like they did in 1993 by scoring first against England, it would take the bookies by some surprise. As Sean Ingle has reported, San Marino can be backed at 150-1: "To put that in context, William Hill offers 100-1 that scientists announce the existence of the Yeti or the Loch Ness monster in the next 12 months."
England are not facing the most taxing of fixtures, but there are some fascinating encounters taking place elsewhere. Russia host Portugal; Belgium travel to Serbia; and the Republic of Ireland welcome Germany to the Aviva tonight. In a match that could prove critical for both teams and their managers, Scotland play Wales tonight in Cardiff.
