England host Scotland at Wembley in just 86 days time in one of the most hotly anticipated matches of Euro 2020 but for now it's all about them starting on their journeys to Qatar 2022 as their qualification campaigns kick-off against San Marino and Austria respectively.
San Marino are (in)famously the lowest ranked team in the world and of course are regularly on the wrong end of a hammering. England have scored 37 goals in their 6 meetings with the minnows. Over 5.5 England goals is just 3/10 and seven or more goals for Gareth Southgate's side a paltry 4/7.
Any goal based bet is just a punt but if you fancy San Marino to hold out for the opening 11 minutes you can have 5/6 at Bet365, as suggested in Mark Walker's preview. Marcus Rashford is likely to miss out so Calvert-Lewin might get the nod and the Everton hitman is 3/1 to open the scoring.
Scotland have a more difficult opening fixture with the visit of Austria to Hampden. But the Scots are looking a lot more solid under Steve Clarke and look a touch too big to win at 23/10. On the draw no bet they also appeal at 5/4.
Clarke has been unable to solve his striking problem thus far so he's turned to Che Adams in a bid to add some potency to his front line. The Southampton striker is 17/2 to open the scoring and 11/4 to net anytime. Hibs' Kevin Nesbit may also be handed his debut. He's similarly priced to score on his international bow.
KevMac reckons it could be a close encounter in his match preview and has backed things to be level at half-time.
Germany, Spain and Italy are all in action on Thursday too with latter hosting Ian Barraclough's Northern Ireland. We've that match previewed alongside the rest of Thursday's stand-out matches below.

Longshot over 2.5 team goals treble @ 7/1 (bet365)
USA vs Jamaica
Pointed out USA in their last friendly and felt they had been underpriced , and have a gut feeling the same has happened. Historically USA and Jamaica games are fairly low scoring and tight games , but one sided as Jamaica have won only 3 out of 28 meetings. But if ever there was a year patterns are being broken … !
Jamaica haven’t played since November, and have called up a fairly inexperienced international squad, with 9 players included for the first time , and all players from the lower leagues in England and Jamaican league, with one player from the EPL. They are also missing Leon Bailey and Ravel Morrison.
USA have a better looking squad than their last 3 friendlies with more first team choices selected due to this game being played in Austria. They have played 3 games since Jamaica last kicked a ball as a team in November, scoring 6,6, and 7 albeit against lower quality opposition, they pose even more of a goal threat in my opinion with the squad they have this time and for the odds on offer happy to have a go at their team goals lines for small stakes. Over 1.5 team goals is a great price at 1/2 in my opinion but too short for a single.
USA team goals (bet365)
3+ @ 6/4
4+ @ 4/1
5+ @ 10/1

Own goal to be scored @ 4/1 @ Bet365, would like to add a penalty scored and England over 5.5mg but as yet can’t find anywhere which are offering the treble at the moment. The predicted siege of the San Marino goal gives every chance of a penalty or own goal being given away.

I wouldn’t be throwing so many eggs in the 1st half basket it could be a bit cagey for the first 10-15 minutes which will hamper the goal targets i expect England will dominate more as the match progresses into the second half.
Were playing San Marino at home so very much doubt it will be a cagey affair.If it were Belgium or Spain then you would expect it to be cagey but not San Marino.

As greg mention in twitter Russian reff Kirill Levnikov is incharge for england vs san marino
Cards market are very low , that very strange for me
Can anyone shed some light on this topic
Best bet of the night for me is the 6/5 bet365 for under 31.5 shots in the England game.
Virgin bet going 11/2 for an own goal as well, happened in last 3 meetings between the 2 teams 👍
Why nishy? If I was to bet on this market I would in fact go overs. Even Scotland got 32 shots against San Marino when they played them. Slovenia 41 and Belgium 44.
Random query but has anyone had any issues with casumo? Signed up last week partly to look at the horse odds for the tipster competition. Deposited 10 pounds but since that day I’ve been blocked out my account until I’ve sent me drivers licence and proof of address. Also had 2 send a selfie with me holding said drivers licence. Done this 3 times on live chat and they have told me it’s been accepted on live chat. Yet still locked out. Haven’t even placed a bet with them yet!

Same as gaz above I spotted the value yesterday but waited for team news.
Surely England won’t concede so going for players to outscore opposition.
Calvert Lewin is 1/12 to score but 8/13 to outscore San Marino
Sterling is 3/10 to score but Evens to outscore San Marino
Mount is 6/5 to score but 13/5 to outscore San Marino
Lingard is 7/10 to score but 9/5 to outscore San Marino

Curacao no clean sheet (st Vincent to score) 9-4 (bet365) NAP/NB.
Nowt else doing tonight so had 2 bets on this longshot.
I do fancy an away goal here and it’s not just the price that’s reeled me in unlike last night’s Guatemala v Cuba effort.
Bookies judging by the handicaps are expecting a 4+ winning margin for Curacao which based on history and the fact they have both not played since 2019 seems too big a margin.
Think I’ve seen st Vincent’s +4 at about evens which looks ok.
St Vincent haven’t lost by 4 or more since 2016.
Only 2 head to heads which were about 7-9 years ago which st Vincent won 1-0 and 4-0 at home.
Hard to make a prediction here with no real form to go on.
2-1 or 3-1 maybe.
Cue a 10-0 home win.
