\nThe oldest international football fixture adds another chapter tonight, when Scotland travel south to Wembley to take on England. The build-up to the game has been dominated by discussion regarding the precarious nature of the two managers.<\/p>\n

Gareth Southgate is England\u2019s interim manager and has tonight\u2019s game and the one against Spain next week to claim the job on a full-time basis, whereas Gordon Strachan is fighting to stay as Scotland manager and anything less than a win tonight could be the end of his tenure in charge.<\/p>\n

England top Group F, with 7 points from their three games so far, whilst Scotland sit in fourth place, with four points from their opening three matches.<\/p>\n

Gareth Southgate has confirmed that there are no injury doubts over his England squad and that Wayne Rooney will start as captain. Harry Kane returned from 7 weeks out with an ankle injury in the North London derby last weekend and could be in line for a start.<\/p>\n

Scotland have one fitness doubt in Steven Fletcher, who\u2019s suffering from a knee injury. Scott Brown suffered a dead leg last weekend, but is likely to be passed fit.<\/p>\n
