England vs Switzerland [P] + [R]

Starting XI
I can't really see England losing this one.. They will be out there to redeem themselves from the France match and they know that they must win to have a chance of getting to the quarters

'That everton trash' will no doubt make an impact in the match. England will won this. Rooney and Scholes(if he plays).

England were the favourites to win this game a long time ago, but looking back on the first matches England played a very good opening match and the Swiss didn't impress against Croatia.

So I think it all comes down to psychological matters, England must be fired up but not panic if they don't score during the first half.

Lets hope the Switzerland defense is like Swiss Cheese.

That way players like Scholes, Lampard and Rooney can run through and put England on their way (H)

Scholes Ready For Swiss Battle

Paul Scholes looks to have won his race to be fit for England's crucial Group B match against Switzerland on Thursday.

Scholes suffered a twisted ankle in the 2-1 defeat to France on Sunday, and Sven Goran Eriksson rated him as having only a 50/50 chance of making England's second game of the tournament after he missed training on Monday and Tuesday.

But the 29-year-old midfielder came through Wednesday's session unscathed and is now ready to take his place in the starting eleven against the Swiss on Thursday.

Speaking at a news conference in Coimbra, Sven-Goran Eriksson said of Scholes' progress: "He will be fit for the game. He did everything in training on Wednesday and will be okay for the match. It is very good news for us."

Gary Neville also picked up a knock in England's first match but is still set to start against Switzerland.

Eriksson admitted he has to pick his squad up after the disappointment of losing in such devastating fashion against the French.

"It's difficult to understand why we lost the game," he said. "I can remember only two other games that finished in such a way; Manchester United's game against Bayern Munich, and the Italy-France match in Euro 2000."
