The England's Women's Coach Hope Powell has named an unchanged squad for the World Cup play-off against Switzerland.
The winner of the tie will go through to next year's finals in Germany, with the losers going into another play-off with three other European sides for the right to face a side from North or Central America.
"Switzerland are an improving side with some talented young players and they will want to be in Germany next year as much as us, they will be working hard to try and get there," said Powell.
"We must now prepare ourselves diligently for these two upcoming games and ensure we give ourselves the best chance to qualify. Our first objective to make sure we get a good result in our home fixture at Shrewsbury Town."
The Football Association have also confirmed that the first leg of England's double header against Switzerland will kick-off at 2pm on Sunday September 12. The game will be played at Shrewsbury Town's Greenhous Meadow Stadium.
The second leg will take place on Thursday 16 September in Wohlen, Switzerland at 7pm (Local Time).
