DAVID JAMES AND JERMAIN DEFOE REPORTEDLY SET TO START FOR ENGLAND VS ALGERIA

England had better keep their wits about them, but since they aren't playing an Eastern European side maybe they don't have anything to worry about? We've already seen one massive upset today and it looks like we might be about to see another one as Slovenia looks set to secure their way through to the next stage with a 2-0 lead over the hapless American side. 

England will want to keep it tight and keep it ultra-organized today against Algeria. The big change comes at the back for the Americans with early news indicating that Robert Greene has indeed lost his place in the England goal and Fabio Capello has drafted in David James. 
England are a heavy 1.25 favourite to win this match with popular bookmaker Bet365. You can back Algeria at 13.0 if you think the run of upsets is going to impact all three matches today. You can also back the draw at a 6.0 price. 
England to win 1-0 pays out at 5.0 while a 2-0 victory is the favoured outcome at a slim 4.5. A 3-0 victory pays out at 6.5 while 4-0 rewards at 12.0. 5-0 to England is where you get into the silly money and that's listed at 26.0. That would make this the highest scoring World Cup group stage match so far. 
A 1-1 draw is priced at 12.0 while 1-0 to Algeria rewards at 21.0. 
England are 1.72 to win both legs of the half-time/full-time market. 
David James odds to keep a clean sheet are listed at 1.5. The over/under on goals is at 2.5 while the under is priced at 1.95 and the over trades at 1.85. 
Wayne Rooney is the only player who is odds-on to score with a 1.8 price tag with Bet365. Jermain Defoe has seen his price drop to score since it looks like he will be starting up front with Rooney. He trades alongside Peter Crouch at a 2.6 anytime price. If Defoe starts the match I think he's a good bet to grab a goal.
