The old enemy are in town tonight as England take on Germany at Wembley from 8pm. Whilst this is only a friendly, it should prove an informative contest. Our man Danny Archer is heading to the match tonight and here are his selections...
England 3/1
Germany 1/1

Draw 13/5
England - Having qualified for Russia in October, Gareth Southgate looks set to name a very different side to the one which laboured to victories over Slovenia and Lithuania last month. Debuts look set to be handed to Jordan Pickford, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Tammy Abraham, who will head the front line with Jamie Vardy. Eric Dier will captain the Three Lions at Wembley tonight and this young side look sure to learn a lot from this assignment. Southgate looks keen to blood some young players which has partly arisen due to a number of key players withdrawing from the squad including Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Raheem Sterling and midfield maestro Jordan Henderson.
England have won their last four international games and have won 15 of their last 178 games at Wembley. Unbeaten in seven games under the iconic arch, this will be a severe test of England's credentials. We've played the Germans 32nd times with both sides winning 13 matches and this looks sure to be another tight event.

Germany - The Germans, the current World Champions were decisive in their international group which included Northern Ireland and they will be buoyed by a decent record against England having scored 13 of their past 14 internationals. Joachim Low's side are unbeaten in seven international matches and if they do win this game, it will be their best run since a 12-game unbeaten stretch in 1980.
They look sure to name a decent side which will include Mats Hummels, Toni Kroos, Mesut Ozil, Julian Draxler and Mario Gotze so England's young team will have to be at their best.
Archer's Verdict - Interesting contest this but surely England's young side will boast players looking to get on the plane to Russia next season so that adds a bit of spice to this one. With that in mind, England to score at 33/1 with Coral looks a good bet.

I'm also quite keen on England/Draw at 5/6 given the Three Lions' decent record at home.
