With Wayne Rooney banned for the England match against Switzerland, William Hill are betting on which of the three forwards in the squad will start the game. Darren Bent is 1/7 while Peter Crouch is 1/4. Bobby Zamora is 11/4. The central midfield is another position that is up for grabs during the match and Hills make Scott Parker, Frank Lampard and Jack Wilshere all odds on to start, with Capello thought to be considering three men across the middle. Parker is 4/9, while Lampard is 1/10 and Jack Wilshere 4/11.
Parker and Wilshere impressed against Wales and it looks as they will be rewarded by starting on Saturday. Lampard also looks like he will start alongside the pair as Capello seeks to use the 4-3-3 that has proved effective in recent matches, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.
England are 2/5 to win the match at Wembley with Switzerland 6/1. The draw is priced at 14/5. Hills also offer 3/1 that any England substitute scores a goal. Darren Bent is the 10/3 favourite to open the scoring on Saturday, with Peter Crouch 9/2, joint second favourite with Bobby Zamora.
England are 8/1 to win Euro 2012 and 12/1 to win the competition without losing a game either in qualifying or the finals themselves.

William Hill are offering a number of West Ham specials, following the announcement that Sam Allardyce has taken over the reins at West Ham. He has been a relative success at almost every club that he has been at and Hills offer 10/11 that West Ham get promoted into the Premier League at any point during Allardyces time at the club. They are 16/1 to win either the FA or League Cup under Big Sam and 20/1 to qualify for Europe. Despite the arrival of a big name manager, it would appear that a big name player may be leaving the club. Hills offer 1/20 that Scott Parker has left the club before the first game of next season.
West Ham Odds:
Will West Ham win a cup (FA or League) under Allardyce: 16/1
Will they qualify for Europe Under Allardyce: 20/1
Will they be relegated (from Championship) under Allardyce: 16/1
Will they be promoted under Allardyce: 10/11
Scott Parker to still be at West Ham after summer transfer window: 1/20 No; 8/1 Yes
