England vs Belarus– October 14th Saturday, at Wembley (20.00 UK Time)-
Football returns to television this Wednesday ( after the internet only stream of the weekend qualifier against Ukraine) as England host Belarus in their final Group 6 qualifier. Fabio Capello’s men have already booked thier spot at the 2010 World Cup finals, but will be keen to preserve their unbeaten home record in European qualifying.
England were beaten 1-0 by Ukraine on Saturday, thereby giving coach Fabio Capello his first competitive defeat as manager of the Three Lions. But England are yet to be defeated at home in qualifying, and Capello will want the side to end their campaign in style at Wembley.
Who is injured : Wayne Rooney
Who is suspended : Robert Green
A calamitous piece of defending from Rio Ferdinand saw Robert Green become the first ever England goalkeeper to be sent off at senior international level. Rooney, England’s standout player on Saturday, has been ruled out of this clash with a calf injury. Rooney is also England’s highest scorer in qualifying with nine goals to his name.
