This is where England interim boss Lee Carsley and captain Harry Kane will be addressing the media in about 20 minutes time.
Kane will win his 99th cap for his country if he plays tomorrow which will leave him on course to hit the magical 100 milestone next Tuesday at Wembley against Finland.
Will he become England's most-capped player of all-time?
Peter Shilton holds the record with 125 caps.
Midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White says he was "buzzing" when Lee Carsley was named as the interim England manager, saying the job suits him.
Gibbs-White played a key part under Carsley when England won the Under-21 European Championship.
Lee Carsley and Harry Kane's news conference is now expected to start at 19:30 BST.
We will bring you some build-up to tomorrow's game while we're waiting.

England are in the second tier of the Nations League for the first time since its formation after finishing bottom of their group last time out.
Finland and Greece are the other teams in League B Group 2.
The Three Lions need to win the group to be assured of promotion back to the top flight.
The Republic of Ireland have a new man in charge tomorrow too, Heimir Hallgrimsson.
Hallgrimsson was Iceland co-boss when they knocked England out of Euro 2016.
He has replaced Stephen Kenny as the Ireland boss.
"I’m really excited to see the atmosphere in this massive game against England, to see if we can transfer what we’ve done in training into the pitch," said Hallgrimsson.
"Man for man, going gung-ho, we’d probably lose nine times out of 10. It is better being a collective."
Lee Carsley and Harry Kane both know Ireland well.
Birmingham-born Carsley won 40 caps for the Republic of Ireland through his grandparents, and Kane's father was born in Galway.
England U21 boss Carsley had been the favourite to become the Republic of Ireland manager for a good chunk of the last year.
This is England's first game without Gareth Southgate in charge since 2016.
He stepped down after their Euro 2024 final defeat by Spain.
