He will also use a series of video clips to motivate the players prior to the 1.15pm kick off at Wembley.
Adkins will show the squad clips from Hollywood movie Gladiator and a recent interview with David Beckham in the hope that the players that are not selected for the 16 rally the rest of the troops on to claim the prize.
The squad will leave Glanford Park at 1pm on Friday afternoon and the media will be out in force to see the players boarding the bus. Fans are welcome.
