Article body
No changes
Although Liechtenstein suffered a heavy 5-0 defeat against Turkey in October, Loose has resisted the temptation to make any changes to the squad ahead of the England match, naming the same 18 players.
Unexpected point
Liechtenstein currently lie fourth in Group 7 with one point from two games. Loose's side began promisingly, with a 1-1 draw at home to F.Y.R. Macedonia before their loss in Istanbul. They face another stiff examination at the hands of England, currently second with four points from their two matches.
Liechtenstein squad
Heeb, Jehle, Gigon, D Hasler, Ospelt, Ritter, Michael Stocklasa, Zech, R Büchel, M Beck, Burgmeier, Gerster, T Nigg, Telser, Martin Stocklasa, T Beck, Frick, D'Elia.
