If you really think England are going to run away with this one, try backing them to win 5-2 at 150/1. England to win 5-0 is trading at 50/1, but find me a time when England got that far ahead when they didn't ship at least a few cheap ones. England to win a 3-2 thriller is available at a solid 40/1 payday.

It's probably not a big surprise that one of the only real recognized strikers in the squad is the outright favourite to open the scoring. Jermain Defoe can be backed at a 9/2 listing to score first or last while he's a slim 8/11 for an anytime strike. You'll find him priced at 3/1 to grab 2 or more and 16/1 for hat-trick honours.
Manchester United's Danny Welbeck is a 10/11 shot for an anytime goal and he's at 6/1 to score first or last. Daniel Sturridge of Chelsea can be backed at identical prices. Frank Lampard can be backed at 5/4 to score anytime and that's actually a fairly solid bet. Steven Gerrard also looks likely to score, particularly if deployed as more of a second striker than a right midfielder or defensive shield sitting deep.
Tom Cleverley has a habit of carving out decent chances and expect him to see a significant amount of the ball, especially in and around the 'Paul Scholes area' as Ukraine will likely keep a fairly deep line and defend in numbers. His thru-balls will be crucial but expect him to be called upon to finish off a number of chances today. He's a solid bet for a 10/3 anytime goal if you see him listed in the starting line-up.
Raheem Sterling may be a wild card to make it into the starting lineup and he's at 7/2 for an anytime goal and 14/1 to open or close the scoring. A dream debut could see him coming on for the last 25 minutes and putting England up 3-0 from 2-0 in the closing minutes when the game is already wrapped up.
As usual, in matches like this where it might be tight, you'll usually find a goal coming from a set-piece. If you fancy a 1-0 result, try backing Phil Jagielka or Joleon Lescott to grab an anytime goal at 8/1.
