The Germans are predicting a 6-5 win penalty shootout.
Watch out for Mesut Oezil but for the English the danger man might be Sami Khedira. The VfB Stuttgart holding midfielder likes to come up not just on set pieces and has come close to scoring on a number of occasions.
Cacau will not be available to Jogi Low because of an abdominal injury. Miroslav Klose comes back from suspension. Bastian Schweinsteiger was also declared match fit.
Fabio Capello retains the same starting line up which won against Slovenia. No surprises there.
Germany: 1-Manuel Neuer; 16-Philipp Lahm, 3-Arne Friedrich, 17-Per Mertesacker, 20-Jerome Boateng, 13-Thomas Mueller, 6-Sami Khedira, 7-Bastian Schweinsteiger, 10-Lukas Podolski, 8-Mesut Ozil, 11-Miroslav Klose.
England: 1-David James; 2-Glen Johnson, 15-Matthew Upson, 6-John Terry, 3-Ashley Cole; 16-James Milner, 4-Steven Gerrard, 8-Frank Lampard, 14-Gareth Barry; 19-Jermain Defoe, 10-Wayne Rooney.
Referee: Jorge Larrionda (Uruguay).
