England vs. Lithuania, Euro 2016 qualifying: Time, TV schedule and live stream

England shouldn’t have a problem seeing off Lithuania at Wembley on Friday.

England will look to maintain their perfect Euro 2016 qualifying record on Friday, as Roy Hodgson’s side host Lithuania at Wembley. They’ve won all four of their matches so far, and a total of six on the bounce -- including a convincing 3-1 friendly win away at fierce rivals Scotland. There’s no reason that the Three Lions shouldn’t record another victory here, with Lithuania having been hammered 4-0 by Switzerland in their last qualification match.

Hodgson has named an intriguingly young squad, with only eight players having over 30 caps. Full-back Danny Rose, midfielder Ryan Mason and striker Harry Kane -- all from Tottenham Hotspur -- could all make their first international appearances, as Hodgson continues to search for long-term replacements for recently retired veterans of the England international scene like Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Ashley Cole.

Key player - Harry Kane (England)

Hodgson has been pretty conservative with his England selections in the past, and was unwilling to hand West Bromwich Albion starlet Saido Berahino his first cap when he was called up for the last set of international games -- instead bizarrely opting to bring Rickie Lambert on as a substitute instead. However, Harry Kane’s ridiculous domestic goalscoring record this season means he could well start, in which case Lithuania’s defence will have a tough task to keep him quiet.

Key question - What will Wayne Rooney’s role be?

Should Kane make it into the first team, Hodgson has a dilemma regarding the positioning of Wayne Rooney. Though he’s played in midfield a little for Manchester United this season, it was painfully obvious that he lacked the technical proficiency to be able to do so effectively. Still, unless Hodgson switches to playing two up top, Rooney will probably have to play as a No. 10 in this match.
