Good news for Wales. Joe Allen is fit and takes over from suspended defender James Collins.

Sinisa Mihajlovic: "I would say that 0-0 (at Hampden Park against Scotland) is more or less an honest result. I expected honestly that we would win against Scotland, but we made a few mistakes. We have some things to change to be better in forthcoming matches."

Wales boss Coleman is yet to see his side score a goal, let alone register a win. "It does weigh on your mind, I'm not going to lie to you,” said Coleman. “But we're going to score and we're going to win. Sooner or later that's going to happen. When we do it, we can march on and plough forward. The last game, I was more than happy with the players, I really was. But we've got to show that consistently for the next nine games."
