The first of the qualifying double-header, and on paper the most straightforward, sees England take on Moldova at Wembley this evening.
The group is looking tight and with a tricky away trip to the Ukraine coming up Tuesday night, this really is a must-win if we want to make the World Cup.
Roy Hodgson has had a fair few injuries to contend with, most notably the withdrawals of Wayne Rooney and the in-form Daniel Sturridge up-front, so Rickie Lambert will make his first start in an England shirt, hot on the heels of his match winning substitute appearance against Scotland. Theo Walcott and Danny Welbeck will assist the Southampton striker from out wide, in front of a midfield three of Steven Gerrard, Jack Wilshere and Frank Lampard, who'll earn his 99th cap in this match.
Phil Jones and Glen Johnson are out so the defence will be made up of Kyle Walker, Ashley Cole, Phil Jagielka and Gary Cahill. Joe Hart in goal, no more clangers please!
