Smith, who has been utilised as a midfielder at Old Trafford this season, played in both England's matches in the summer Tour of the USA and last scored for the Three Lions in a friendly against Portugal three years ago.

For central defender Campbell the call-up to the England squad comes on the back of an excellent run of form following a return from long-term injury.

England would seem to have an embarrassment of riches at centre back as along with Campbell, England can call on Chelsea captain John Terry, Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand, Tottenham's Ledley King and Jamie Carragher of Liverpool.

Charlton Athletic duo Darren Bent and Luke Young retain their places in the squad. Bent has enjoyed an outstanding start to the season whilst Young has the chance to add to his haul of caps after playing in four of England's last five matches.

Along with Bent there are four other strikers in the squad, though Manchester United's 19-year-old forward Wayne Rooney is suspended for the match against Austria.

Those players unavailable for selection due to injury include Gary Neville, Owen Hargreaves and Michael Carrick.
