Question:

Eriksson v Hughes
Mark Hughes scored the winner against England in 1984 and will look to put one over them again in his penultimate game in charge.
Much has been written about Sven-Goran Eriksson's future, but he has a fine record in the big qualifying games.
Eriksson will again be under pressure for a win, while a draw would be considered a decent result for Wales.
Neville v Giggs
It promises to be an intriguing clash between the Manchester United team-mates at Old Trafford.
Ryan Giggs is not the exciting wing wizard he once was, as likely to pop up in the centre than out on the touchline.
However, he is still a potential match-winner and Gary Neville will need all his experience and local knowledge to stem his threat.
Cole v Bellamy
Despite favouring a striking role, Wales will again use Craig Bellamy on the right wing.
The fiery Newcastle star's strengths are his pace and desire and he is sure to be pumped up for this clash.
Ashley Cole has matured into a world class defender as well as a willing attacker - but he may need to concentrate on his defensive duties.
Ferdinand v Hartson
Rio Ferdinand has played just two games since returning from an eight-month ban but has looked sharp.
At his best he provides a steady presence at the back, is assured in the tackle and dominant in the air.
As a lone striker the imposing John Hartson will look to cause havoc for the England backline and bring Wales' five-man midfield into the game.
Lampard v Speed
With Paul Scholes retired and Steven Gerrard injured, Frank Lampard will be England's experienced head in central midfield.
The Chelsea man seems to improve with every game for his country - a fine passer with an eye for goal.
Gary Speed performs a similar role for Wales, and his aerial power and ability to arrive late could be a major factor.
Rooney v Gabbidon
England will throw Wayne Rooney straight into the starting line-up after his recent return from injury.
Despite being just 18 years old he is England's most dangerous weapon, with his ability to create and score goals from nothing.
Danny Gabbidon has emerged as a bright young defender, but he will have his hands full with Rooney.
