England v Turkey
The Stadium of Light in Sunderland plays host to the most important game yet in England's campaign to qualify for next year's European championships (kickoff 8.00).
World Cup semi-finalists Turkey, ranked one place ahead of England in Fifa's current world rankings, have shot to the top of Group Seven on the back of three consecutive wins. High-quality players such as Rustu Recber , Alpay Ozalan and Hasan Sas will be integral to boss Senol Gunes 's aim to consolidate his 100 percent record in the qualifiers.
England, on the other hand, have been in less than convincing form since the World Cup, and Sven-Goran Eriksson 's team will need to hit top gear to overturn this frustrating lack of consistency. Can the likes of David Beckham , Michael Owen and Rio Ferdinand rise to the big occasion in what is potentially their toughest fixture so far?
Introduced by Gary Lineker with Alan Hansen , with John Motson and Trevor Brooking in the commentary box. The match is repeated in full at 1.05am.
Includes, at half-time, tonight's winning Lottery numbers.
