Euro 2024 qualifying is reaching its conclusion and all eyes will be on Wembley, where England can seal their place in Germany with a home victory over Italy.

Things have been less encouraging for Northern Ireland, who have already been eliminated from Group H and now take on section leaders Slovenia, while France and Scotland, two teams that have already qualified for next summer's showpiece, celebrate with a friendly showdown in Lille.

To enjoy the action, football tipster Aaron Ashley has assembled a fourfold which pays over 5-1.

All bets must be placed by 7.45pm on Tuesday.

England v Italy

England have won their last 12 home European Championship qualifiers and, with victory securing their place in Germany next summer, they should be fully focused. The Three Lions won March's reverse fixture in Naples 2-1 and can repeat the trick.

Northern Ireland v Slovenia

Slovenia sit top of Group H and can claim three precious points away at Northern Ireland, who are already eliminated having lost five of their seven group games with their only two victories coming against San Marino. Slovenia were 4-2 winners at home to the Green and White Army last month and are likely to be more motivated team for the rematch.

Serbia v Montenegro

With Serbia second in Group G but only two points ahead of Montenegro, who have a game in hand, this fixture could have huge ramifications on qualification. But Serbia were deserved 2-0 winners in Montenegro in March and they have the greater attacking quality, so they should frank the form.

France v Scotland

France and Scotland have already qualified for Euro 2024 and while both managers are likely to ring the changes for this friendly encounter, Les Bleus have the greater strength in depth and should reign supreme.
