Euro qualifiers: preview

Last updated : 26 August 2006 By SpursMAD

Jermain Defoe and Peter Crouch will be England's likely front pairing against Andorra next Saturday and then against Macedonia five days later. Andy Johnson will join Darren Bent as back-up in the one change to the squad.

Wayne Rooney is suspended for both matches, Michael Owen is out for the season, Jamie Carragher, Joe Cole and Gary Neville are all missing through injury. Luke Young or Phil Neville will replace the Manchester United player at right back.
