It's a big weekend for Welsh football as the national team host England in what is expected to be a sell out crowd at the Millennium Stadium.

It will be the first time the Welsh fans will have packed the ground since England's last visit to Cardiff, when Joe Cole's goal in 2005 cemented England's place at the top of their World Cup qualifying group.

Gary Speed takes charge for the first time in a Euro 2012 qualifier, having seen his side lose 3-0 against the Republic of Ireland in his first match last month.

With the news of Gareth Bale's withdrawal coming as a blow to the home side, former Arsenal & Celtic striker, as well as Wales legend, John Hartson says they'll have to play to their absolute best in order to get a result.

John was speaking as an ambassador for the Tesco Cup, now in its sixth season involving more than 60,000 kids in 3,600 teams across three age groups, both girls and boys in the UK. The Welsh regional final takes place on May 1st in Newtown, where Hartson will be in attendance to cast his eye over the talent.
