The last meeting between the two sides was a friendly at Celtic Park on November 18 2014, where England ran out 3-1 winners under the stewardship of Roy Hodgson.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain gave the Three Lions the lead with a deft header from Jack Wilshere’s driven pass, before captain Wayne Rooney reacted quickest to double England’s lead two minutes into the second half.

Andrew Robertson gave Gordon Strachan’s side hope with a well-worked goal seven minutes from time, but any hopes of a rescuing a draw from the encounter were ended when Rooney netted his 46th international goal after some neat football from the visitors.
