Wales will meet their neighbor England in a Group G match in the Euro 2012 Championship Qualifiers on Saturday, March 26, 2011 kicks off at 15:00 GMT – Millennium Stadium, Wales.

Wales are currently in a bad place, have still zero points and their real chances to qualify are least to nothing, after three consecutive defeats in group G, the hosts are at last position with only one goal scored and six conceived.

Wale’s team have lost all three of their qualifying matches so far, as away visitor 0-1 score against Montenegro, a 0-1 against Bulgaria as a host and a 1-4 score against Switzerland as a visitor. They have conceded a total of six second-half goals in their past three visits.

Earlier, Wales and England met here for a qualification in 2005 year for a World Cup qualification match, a game that ended 0-1 in favor of England. Overall both sides have met 101 times; in 48 times Wales has been the host, record of won 6, drawn 12 and loss 30.

The stars will have to shine particularly brightly if Speed’s teams are to pick up their first point of the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign against unbeaten England.

England comes in this match as second in the group with three matches and seven points with a match less than Montenegro. They have managed to lose two points, at home ground against the leaders in the group G.

England team was able to beat Bulgaria at home ground with 4-0 score, Switzerland with 3-1 score, but draw against Montenegro on Wembley side. Capello wants his side to get back at the top of the group, after their last disappointing.

However, if the side wins this match on Saturday night they will be able to re-claim the top position. The only big absence in England’s squad is Rio Ferdinand, who was unusually replaced by Fabio Capello.

As you may have heard the latest news that, John Terry will be England’s captain again, as Capello is trying lots of new things to improve the team. He is trying to make the team work, because since he came along, the team has not showed anything notable.
