The village split down the middle ahead of England and Wales clash
Straddling the border between the two nations, Llanymynech's 2,000 or so residents have been counting down the days to the match ever since the draw for the tournament was made.
For one night, the otherwise tight-knit community will be split down the middle - largely divided by the choice of pub.
The Cross Keys sits on the English side of the road passing through the centre of the village, while on the opposite side is The Dolphin, from which point everything else is Welsh.
"If you're on the path you're in Wales, if you're in here you're in Shropshire," Jason Farr, owner of The Cross Keys, was quoted as saying in the Daily Telegraph.
Sarah Gregory, whose sister and brother-in-law run the Dolphin, said match nights can get quite lively.
"When Wales score, people run out, shout and come back," she told the Telegraph. "Then if England score they come and give some abuse and run back.
"Friendly abuse. We have a good banter."
Judging by recent history things might be a little louder in the Cross Keys on Tuesday.
England have won the last six meetings between the sides, and Wales haven't tasted victory since 1984.
After a 64-year wait to return to a World Cup, Wales are on the brink of elimination and will need to beat England, possibly by a four-goal margin, to reach the last 16.
But what happens if Wales do get knocked out? Would the Dolphin drinkers switch to supporting England?
"I'd probably support someone else if I'm honest," golf club manager Jason Jones said.
