Lionhearts V Bravehearts

Millions set to watch biggest clash in 25 years in pubs and on TV

THE “Battle of Britain” is here as the Lionhearts clash with the Bravehearts at Wembley tonight in the biggest game between football’s oldest rivals since their Euro 96 clash.

England and Scotland fans will down an incredible 3.4 million pints in pubs during the 90 minutes alone.

And with many taking the day off or “working from home” around 15 million beers are likely to be sunk during the day.

Up to 20,000 ticketless Scotland fans are expected in London for the crunch clash they desperately need to win.

Thousands descended on the capital yesterday with the sound of the bagpipes heard at Trafalgar Square.

Most are planning to use Hyde Park as their base before heading to pubs and bars to watch the game.

England supporters also can’t wait and one street in Knowle West, South Bristol, has been decked out with St George’s flags.
