There had been suggestions that the match would be cancelled in the wake of Friday's deadly terrorist attacks in Paris, which has left over 130 people dead - a total that French officials have warned is likely to rise.

However, the fixture is to go ahead as planned, which will mark the 30th encounter between the two European nations.

Les Bleus have dominated the head-to-head record recently, but here Sports Mole looks back on England's five most recent victories.

1. England 2-0 France, 1966

When people think back to England's World Cup triumph on home soil, the likes of Sir Geoff Hurst, Sir Bobby Charlton and Bobby Moore come to mind. However, the contribution of Roger Hunt is often overlooked, despite the fact that he scored the same number of goals during the tournament as Charlton - three.

Two of them came in the final group encounter against France - one in each half. Five minutes before the break Jack Charlton's headed effort struck the base of the post, but Liverpool's Hunt was on hand to turn in the rebound. He then converted a header 15 minutes from time after he had been picked out by Ian Callaghan.

2. England 5-0 France, 1969

Hurst scored English football's most memorable hat-trick in 1966, but what people may not know is that he was also the next player to score three goals in one game for the Three Lions when France visited Wembley in March 1969.

Two of his trio came from the penalty spot, while Francis Lee and Mike O'Grady added further gloss to the scoreline as the French were humiliated in London.

3. England 3-1 France, 1982

Up against a youthful French side, it took England just 27 seconds to break the deadlock, which was a World Cup record for the fastest goal ever scored until Turkey's Hakan Sukur broke it in 2002. Bryan Robson was the scorer as the midfielder reacted quickest to fire in Terry Butcher's flick-on.

Gerard Soler equalised before the break, but Robson was on target again in the 66th minute to restore England's lead in Bilbao. Ipswich Town's Paul Mariner then made sure of the outcome in the closing stages with a volley from close range.

4. England 2-0 France, 1992

France made their first trip to Wembley since that Hurst-inspired hammering 23 years earlier and while this time it was not quite as emphatic, the hosting Three Lions still won through.

It was to be a particularly memorable night for Southampton's young centre-forward Alan Shearer, who marked his senior international debut with a goal. It was the type of finish that ended up becoming the Geordie's trademark over the years. Shearer was also involved in England's second goal in the 74th minute as Nigel Clough fired his cross straight at France goalkeeper Gilles Rousset. Gary Lineker pounced on the rebound, first heading against the crossbar before he turned the ball in from a yard.

5. France 0-1 England, 1997

As a warm-up for their role as the hosts of the World Cup 12 months later, France put on Le Tournoi in 1997. It was a four-country round-robin tournament involving England, Brazil and Italy, as well as the home team.

Having beaten the Italians on matchday one with Ian Wright and Paul Scholes on the scoresheet, Shearer returned to haunt France once again. There was only four minutes left on the clock when future Manchester United goalkeeper Fabien Barthez failed to hold Teddy Sheringham's deflected cross. An alert Shearer reacted quickest to bundle the ball home, securing England the trophy in the process.
