Slovenia vs. England: World Cup 2010 Schedule June 23 and Bracket Match - England’s first two games did not go well. Fabio Capello is still confident that England can win this game and go all way. The suspended Jamie Carragher will be replaced by Matty Upson in central defence, while it’s possible we could see Jermain Defoe start up front alongside Wayne Rooney.

English conceit regarding their prospects in World Cup Group C following the group draws late last year were summed up most spectacularly by the London tabloid The Sun whose editors, in apparent World Cup delirium, coined the now famous EASY acronym for Group C.

Slovenia sits on top of Group C right now as the only team with a win to their name. Anything but defeat and they’re through to the Round of 16, so expect to seem them defend and counter, and challenge England to find the creativity that has been missing so far.
