Senegal boss, Aliou Cisse, has made two changes to the side that beat Ecuador in their previous game.
Pape Gueye drops to the bench, with Leicester’s Nampalys Mendy taking his place, while Everton’s Idrissa Gueye – who is suspended – is replaced by Krepin Diatta.
Expect to see Senegal line up in either a 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 formation, which has served them well in Qatar so far.
Notable names on Cisse’s team-sheet include Chelsea duo Edouard Mendy and Kalidou Koulibaly, plus Watford forward Ismaila Sarr.
As expected, Bukayo Saka has been recalled to the England XI for tonight’s World Cup last-16 clash with Senegal. The fact that he has returned in place of Marcus Rashford – who scored twice in the 3-0 win over Wales – is a huge call from Gareth Southgate, though.
Also notable is the fact that Mason Mount remains on the bench, with Jordan Henderson retaining his place in midfield, while Kyle Walker is again preferred to Kieran Trippier.
