England boss, Gareth Southgate, will once again field the same starting XI that earned him his first Euro 2024 win against Denmark on Thursday. 

The Three Lions narrowly beat hard fighting Serbia 1-0 in their first game of the tournament.

Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold started that match in a central midfield role, while Phil Foden was deployed from the left of attack.

Bukayo Saka was on the right wing, with Harry Kane spearheading the attack.

According to Liverpool.com, Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice will again be handed starring roles in the midfield, while Kieran Trippier is on the brink of his 50th cap despite experiencing cramp against Serbia.  

However, Left-back Luke Shaw will miss the clash as he continues his recovery from a hamstring injury.

England go into the encounter knowing that a win will confirm their spot in the Round of 16.

Meanwhile, Denmark who played a 1-1 draw with Slovenia in their first game, will be desperate to cause an upset against Southgate’s men.
