大象传媒 Sport Wales at the Cardiff City StadiumThe teams are in and Wales manager Ryan Giggs has made a big call, dropping captain Ashley Williams in favour of Anderlecht centre-back James Lawrence.
Gareth Bale skippers Wales in Williams' absence, in a team showing 11 changes from Wednesday's friendly win over Trinidad and Tobago.
Among the alterations, there's a first competitive start from Swansea City's rapid and highly-rated young winger, Daniel James.
Wales XI: Hennessey, C Roberts, Mepham, J Lawrence, B Davies, Allen, Smith, Wilson, Brooks, James, Bale.
Slovakia, meanwhile, are unchanged from their opening win over Hungary.
Aptly named Inter Milan defender Milan Skriniar starts at the back - he has been linked with a big-money move to Manchester United, Barcelona or Real Madrid.
Slovakia XI: Dubravka; Pekarik, Vavro, Skriniar, Hancko; Kucka, Lobotka; Rusnak, Hamsik, Mak; Duda

大象传媒 Sport Wales at the Cardiff City StadiumRyan Giggs is 10 matches into his tenure as Wales manager but, after what he called a 鈥渇ree hit鈥 of a first year in charge, the serious business begins today with the start of their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign.
Wales will go straight in at the deep end against Slovakia at Cardiff City Stadium 鈥 a match which could prove highly significant for both sides鈥 hopes of qualifying.
With World Cup runners-up Croatia the favourites to top Group E, many reckon this meeting between second seeds Wales and third seeds Slovakia will go a long way to deciding who claims the second automatic qualification spot.
Wales forward Gareth Bale does not see it that way, insisting his side are 鈥済oing for top spot鈥. This has the feel of a huge game.

Today they begin their latest qualifying campaign hoping it is not 2074 until they reach another.
