Croatia v Belgium and Belgium v Wales
Simon Mignolet
The talented stopper has been brilliant since his summer arrival at Anfield, but will sit on the bench for his country, with Chelsea owned Thibaut Courtois starting between the sticks. Belgium currently top the group, and know only a disaster will stop them travelling to Brazil next summer.
Denmark v Italy and Denmark v Malta
Daniel Agger
The tattooed Dane captains Denmark, and bagged a penalty for them in their last qualifying match. He will be vital to their chances of beating Bulgaria to the play-off spot in Group B. Denmark need to realistically pick up at least two more points than the Bulgarians to overtake them in the group, as the Eastern-European team are one point ahead, but with significantly better goal difference.
Greece v Slovakia and Latvia v Slovakia
Martin Skrtel
The Slovakians are playing for pride in Group G, as Bosnia and Greece are guaranteed to finish in the top two positions. Skrtel will likely start in the away matches against Greece and Latvia, and will be hoping to return to Liverpool unscathed after his positive start to the campaign.
