World Cup 2018 qualifying gets underway on Sunday for the home nations and England, under the guidance of new manager Sam Allerdyce, travel to Slovakia for their first encounter and will attempt to erase the bad memories from Euro 2016. Northern Ireland, who over exceeded their expectations at Euro 2016, get their campaign underway against the Czech Republic while Scotland will aim to make up for missing out on Euro 2016 by making a winning start to their World Cup campaign against Malta.
