Reading midfielder Charlie Savage is hoping to be a part of history this evening as Wales Under-21 look to qualify for the European Championships for the first time.

The midfielder, who has already made his full debut for his country, has appeared in the last few qualifiers for the Under-21s as Matt Jones' side look to make history.

Hosting Czech Republic at Newport County's Rodney Parade this evening (5.30pm kick-off), the 21-year-old is likely to be lining up in the middle of the park.

Currently second in their group going into the final round of fixtures, a point will be enough to secure a play-off place, while victory could see them reach the tournament in Slovakia if results go their way.

Reaching the play-offs in 2008 and losing to England, Wales are currently level Denmark in their group but lost to the Danes earlier in the campaign.

Third-placed Czech Republic are five points behind with a game in hand over Wales.

Victory for Wales would leave Denmark needing to win in their final game against Iceland to deny Wales a place in the finals next summer.

Savage- who has not started for the Royals since a defeat to Leyton Orient last month, is the club's top scorer so far this season with three to his name.
