England versus Scotland – it’s the oldest rivalry in football, and the 113th instalment will take place on Friday when the two meet in a World Cup qualifier at Wembley.

Three Lions interim boss Gareth Southgate goes into the match knowing that victory would do his chances of getting the permanently no harm at all as England go in search of a third win in four matches in Group F.

A frustrating draw away at Slovenia last time out ended their 100% record in qualifying, but it did keep them top of group ahead of their opponents and Lithuania.

For Scotland though, it’s not been a great start, but that would soon be forgotten if they got a precious victory on Friday night.

Manager Gordan Strachan is under pressure after picking up just four points from their first three qualifying matches, which included a disappointing 3-0 defeat in Slovakia last time out.

However, victory over England would draw them level on points with Southgate’s side, and give them momentum going into the rest of the campaign.

The build-up is well underway ahead of Friday’s showpiece, and here at Shoot! we have picked an England and Scotland combined eleven from the current squads.

Thus, here are the 11 names we’ve chosen in our side…
