The Liverpool striker is available for selection against Russia tonight after missing the Israel game through suspension.

"Peter is a big player for us. He scores goals and it is great to have that option coming back," said England manager Steve McClaren.

"It is a different challenge, a tougher challenge and we have looked at one or two things and tried one or two things. But I will confirm the team at lunchtime."
