Wales manager Chris Coleman says England will be tough opponents at Euro 2016 but is not expecting any tactical surprises.
Coleman's side will play Roy Hodgson's men in a 'Battle of Britain' showdown in Lens on 16 June.
A new-look England side featuring the likes of Dele Alli, Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy may lie in wait for the Welsh, but Coleman thinks he will need to do more homework on their other opponents Slovakia and Russia.
"I know Roy very well, he rarely changes tactically," said Coleman.
"He is a very thorough manager and coach, he believes in what he does, and he won't change his formation so much.
"If England were going to change formation drastically it is something I would study, but I don't see them doing that.
"We would never be disrespectful to a team of their quality, but we know all about them and they don't do things so differently.
"We will do our homework and due diligence but it is not a team we will need to scrutinise like Slovakia and Russia, because we know a little bit less about them."
Despite his success, Coleman has yet to agree a new contract to cover the 2018 World Cup qualification campaign.
However, Coleman says there is no chance that uncertainty about his future will have a negative impact on his team.
"We have worked so hard to be where we are and the players won't lose focus," said Coleman.
"It's all about the tournament, about doing as well as we can.
"What comes after the tournament that's in the future, but we have got to concentrate on this.
"I think my relationship with the players is good enough that we are just focused on what is in front of us. Right through the campaign, it was all about the next game.
"There is already rumours outside of the camp about this, that and the other, because the contract is not agreed.
"But all I can say is that I am totally focused on Wales, totally committed as I've always been, and looking forward to these games coming up.
"I've always said that I want to have a crack at the World Cup campaign if things are absolutely right."
Wales will continue their preparations for Euro 2016 in a friendly at home to fellow qualifiers Northern Ireland on Thursday night while England take on world champions Germany in Berlin on Saturday night.
