I can understand why there's not a great deal of interest in this game, but I got a ticket for this in the ballot before the qualifiers were known so I'm looking forward to it anyway. There are quite a few England supporters around, probably doing a double-header like me with the game in St Etienne tomorrow night.
As I drove past the Lyon stadium earlier this afternoon, 5 hours before kick off, there were already thousands of Albanians out enjoying themselves, driving round with flags, hooters, etc, and with both teams needing the win it might actually be an interesting match. Well, I have to be optimistic anyway.

Watched the second half of this match - quite exciting and the Albanian crowd were pretty excitable with players geeing them up for corners etc.

Really enjoyed that, and I'm sure being in the Albanian end with their fantastic fans helped. Half the stadium were in red, no doubt boosted by the large number of Albanians who live in nearby Switzerland (EU sceptics note...)
Saw a few fellow Irons there too
