Dan Walker and guests look ahead to the weekend's football as thoughts turn to the 2014 World Cup, with a busy few days of qualifying fixtures taking place.

England will have been expecting to boost their goal difference against San Marino on Friday, but Tuesday's trip to Montenegro is likely to prove much more significant in terms of their qualification hopes.

The prospects of other home nations reaching Brazil next year are slimmer, but there are plenty of fascinating fixtures to discuss, including Scotland who hosted Wales at Hampden Park, and the visit of Fabio Capello's Russia to Northern Ireland.
