Wales will attempt to move within one victory of a first World Cup finals appearance since 1958 as they host Austria in their play-off semi-final tonight.

With the 2022 tournament in Qatar only a matter of months away now, this looks like the last chance for a number of the country’s greatest ever players to make a mark on perhaps the most celebrated tournament in sport.

It’s hard to imagine any of Joe Allen, Gareth Bale or Aaron Ramsey being involved in the next cycle of qualifiers, meaning tonight’s game could define just how long their international careers continue.

Win against the Austrians and either Scotland - who emerged victorious in a similar format against Wales in 1977 - or Ukraine await in the final in this pathway.
