England will play their final Group B match against Wales knowing that all 3 points will guarantee that they finish top of the table.
The Three Lions opened their World Cup campaign with a 6-2 demolition of Iran before being held to a barren draw by USA.
While Wales drew 1-1 against the Americans in their opening game before suffering a shock 2-0 defeat at the hands of lowly-ranked Iran.
Wales must beat England and hope that Iran’s clash with the USA ends in a draw to secure a place in the knockout stages.
England have won each of their last six games against Wales, scoring an impressive 11 goals and conceding only one during this period.
The highly-anticipated game will mark the first time in history that the Three Lions have faced a fellow British nation in the World Cup.
The Welsh are making a return to the World Cup after 64 years and are desperate to make a statement by progressing to the last 16.
Though they are currently on a winless run of seven matches in all competitions for the first time since November 2003 and need a miracle to win.
