Shaun Wright-Phillips is highly unlikely to feature in England's friendly with Slovakia after missing the final training session before Saturday's match.[LNB] The Manchester City winger has been unable to train all week because of an ankle complaint and he is now expected to sit out the meeting at Wembley.[LNB]England boss Fabio Capello is using the match as a warm-up for Wednesday's World Cup qualifier with Ukraine, and it is now expected that Aaron Lennon and David Beckham will fight it out for a place on the right of midfield.[LNB]Lennon is thought to be set to start following a string of impressive recent displays for Tottenham but, with Capello likely to use all six of his substitutes, Beckham should feature at some point.[LNB]If the former captain plays he will earn his 109th cap and will break Bobby Moore's outfield record of international appearances for England.[LNB]Portsmouth striker Peter Crouch was again able to train after missing sessions earlier in the week due to a calf injury sustained in last weekend's victory over Everton.[LNB]
