England vs Czech Republich: Kane to prove his class for the Three Lions once again

While much of the attention is on England's rising stars, the old guard are likely to remain vital when the Czech Republic visit Wembley in Friday's Euro 2020 qualifier.

Exciting prospects Jadon Sancho, Callum Hudson-Odoi, and Declan Rice have added a new look to the squad that reached last summer's World Cup semi-finals, with Gareth Southgate keen to nurture emerging talent.

Nevertheless, they all have a long way to go before they can be ranked alongside Harry Kane, who has scored 15 goals in his last 17 starts for the Three Lions.

On target in four of his five club games since returning from injury at the end of February, the captain remains the safest bet 11/5 (3.20) first goalscorer odds, as well as 8/11 (1.73) anytime.

Marcus Rashford's three goals in the last six internationals underline his growing stature in the national team, with odds of 6/5 (2.20) available on him adding to that - although injury may force him to settle for a place on the bench.

Raheem Sterling silenced some of the critics in the England fanbase with two important goals in the recent Nations League victory over Spain, and he is priced a 11/8 (2.38) to maintain the fine form that has seen him score 19 times for Manchester City this season.

At the other end of the pitch, Jaroslav Silhavy will be hoping that Patrik Schick can produce some star quality for an attack that has only scored six goals in the last six games.

Responsible for half of those, the Roma striker is his side's 14/1 (15.00) favourite to break the deadlock in London, and on offer at long 9/2 (5.50) anytime odds.

Top scorer in the squad with just six goals from 39 caps, captain Borek Dockal is available at 11/2 (6.50) to score his first international goal in almost four years.

On target just once in 16 internationals, Matej Vydra is a 6/1 (7.00) shot to score against the country where he has been playing his football since 2012.
