Sports Mole casts an eye over England's World Cup qualifier against Ukraine at Wembley Stadium.

England will be looking to make it two wins from their opening two World Cup qualifiers when Ukraine visit Wembley tomorrow evening.

Roy Hodgson's side warmed up for the visit of the Euro 2012 co-hosts by recording a comfortable 5-0 victory away in Moldova on Friday night.

Chelsea's John Terry will miss the match with an ankle injury sustained while playing against Moldova. His club teammate Ashley Cole will also play no part.

The pair's withdrawal has resulted in youngsters Adam Lallana, Jake Livermore and Raheem Sterling being called up by Hodgson. However, none of the trio is expected to feature at Wembley.

Daniel Sturridge has been struggling with stomach cramps but is believed to be winning his race to be passed fit.

The Three Lions head into the encounter with good form in their previous meetings against the Ukrainians, having won four out of the last five matches between the two nations.

Ukraine will be beginning life without Andriy Shevchenko and Andriy Voronin, both of whom retired following their country's exit from the European Championships.

Possible starting lineups:

England: Hart; Johnson, Cahill, Lescott, Baines; Gerrard, Milner, Lampard, Cleverley, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Defoe

Ukraine: Pyatov; Husyev, Mikhalik, Khacheridi, Selin; Tymoshchuk, Yarmolenko, Garmash, Konoplyanka, Devic; Zozulya

Sports Mole says: 1-0
