Northern Ireland take a pause from their World Cup qualifiers on TV for a friendly clash with Estonia today.

Ian Baraclough’s side did what they had to do against Lithuania during a qualifier on Thursday as they came away with a 4-1 win with four different goalscorers.

Fans will hope for a confidence-boosting victory here with plenty of goals to give them an edge going into their final game of the international break, a crucial clash with Switzerland.

Northern Ireland sit third in the five-team Group C. Ahead of the weekend, they are two points short of Switzerland who play Italy today.

The Northern Irish squad will face Switzerland at Windsor Park knowing that defeat would plunge their qualifying campaign into tense waters, but a victory would set them on a strong course.
