    Default will or present simple ?

    Hi, I’d like to ask if the following sentense is written grammatically right and correctly:



    „I expect that at about three o’clock pm my two friends will come.“



    Can I use WILL or should I rather use present simple? Are there any other mistakes?

    It's fine with 'will'. I'd change the time to either 'three o'clock' or 'three pm', though.
