Spirits will be high in Cardiff tonight as Wales host the Czech Republic in an international friendly match.

Gareth Bale’s two goals helped Wales advance to a World Cup play-off final against either Scotland or Ukraine thanks to a 2-1 win over Austria on Thursday.

It means Wales will be in the hat for Friday’s World Cup draw, with the play-off final set to be rescheduled for June.

Robert Page will therefore want to keep the momentum going against the Czechs, who saw their World Cup dream come to an end after defeat to Sweden in their play-off semi-final.

Here’s everything you need to know before the match.
