  Manager Gareth Southgate is expected to keep faith with Harry Maguire in the centre of his defence. PA

• 

  Southgate is a known admirer of Marc Guehi and with John Stones injured, the Crystal Palace defender is in line to start. PA

• 

  Luke Shaw's injury means the path is clear for Chelsea's Ben Chilwell to start at left-back. PA

  The Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice is a key man for Southgate and he will start at the back of the England midfield. Getty

  Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has started the season in exceptional form and England will hope that continues here. Getty

  Perhaps the one place up for grabs is the third man in England's midfield. If Southgate picks on form then it will be Tottenham's James Maddison. Getty

  Completing England's attack is likely to be Marcus Rashford, who scored in Manchester United's 2-1 defeat by Arsenal last weekend. PA

England can move to the brink of qualification for Euro 2024 when they visit Wroclaw in Poland to face Ukraine on Saturday (8pm UAE time).

The Three Lions have been in dominant form in qualifying, winning four games from four and scoring 15 times with just one conceded.

Back in June they racked up a 7-0 win over North Macedonia and a 4-0 victory over Malta, to go with their opening successes – a 2-0 home win against Ukraine and a 2-1 win away in Italy.

Notable injury absentees for England are Jack Grealish, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Luke Shaw and John Stones, but with it being a competitive fixture, manager Gareth Southgate is expected to field his strongest available side.

That means the likes of Harry Kane, Bukayo Saka and in-form Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham should all feature from the off.

Despite his ongoing difficulties at Manchester United, Harry Maguire is expected to keep his place, while it will be interesting to see how Jordan Henderson is utilised in what is his first international call-up since his move to Saudi Pro League side Al Ettifaq.
