    Scotland v England (Sat, 17:00 BST)

    Scotland boss Gordon Strachan asked by BBC Radio 5 live's John Murray about Saturday's opponents:

    "They're only a threat if they've got the ball more than us. We have to make sure the areas they want to play in are not there.

    "England are a rounded team. They don't have to rely on just one or two players. If you can stop the passes and crosses, and if we have more of the ball, then that will help.

    "If we've got the ball then we've got players that can hurt anybody."

    ...On top of getting paid handsomely to travel the world and kick a ball around, there are also countless corporations just waiting to shower you with more money in the hope of getting you to flog their products.

    Who they are and what they sell doesn’t seem to matter that much to players, when they’re being offered mouth-watering wads of cash for less than a day's work.

    Our colleagues at BBC Three have put together some of the weirder and more embarrassing brands and products the world's top football players have decided, in their wisdom, to endorse including that incredibly awkward Independence Day sketch from Wayne Rooney and other Manchester United players...

    Watch the best/worst of them here.

    Scotland defender Charlie Mulgrew says the hosts are ready to take on England despite being "massive underdogs" for Saturday's World Cup qualifier.

    The Scots have won only one of their last 10 meetings - and lost the return fixture 3-0 at Wembley in November.

    But Mulgrew insists the Scots are "feeling good" after some hard training sessions before the Hampden Park match.

    "It is a huge challenge ahead, England are a great team and we will be massive underdogs," said the Blackburn player.

    England manager Gareth Southgate has a fully-fit squad to choose from after everyone reported for training on Friday ahead of the World Cup qualifier against Scotland.

    Tottenham striker Harry Kane, who finished the season as the Premier League's leading scorer for the second successive season with 29 goals, is set to lead the line.

    Southgate spoke at length to West Ham's Aaron Cresswell, who will contest the left-back spot with Ryan Bertrand.

    The absence of Hal Robson-Kanu, one of Wales’ Euro 2016 heroes, is another blow to Chris Coleman who is already without star man Gareth Bale.

    Sam Vokes now looks certain to start on his 50th appearance for his country and Tom Lawrence may have a good chance of starting too.

    But there’s no doubt that Wales’ resources will be stretched to the limit for arguably their toughest assignment of the group.
