Wales will have Ryan Giggs available to face England in the World Cup 2006 qualifiers, after fixtures negotions were resolved today.
Mark Hughes side will travel to Aberbaijan in theopening Group Six game on September 4, followed by Northen Ireland at the Millenium four days later.
It is the start Hughes was looking for due to Giggs two match suspension and he will be back to face England in the third game, not yet confirmed but thought to bestaged at Old Trafford on October 9.
Another bonus for Wales is that their last two matches will be against Northern Ireland away then Azerbaijan at home, hopefully giving Wales a great chance of getting at least a play-off spot.
FAW secretary general David Collins said: "It is really close to our initial gameplan give or take two or three fixtures to facilitate the other nations."
