Harry Kane, Dele Alli and England team train ahead of Belgium clash - in pictures

Match will decide who tops Group G

Both England and Belgium have already qualified for the knockout stages of the World Cup but both sides will be keen to retain their 100 per cent when they meet on Thursday at the Kaliningrad Stadium in Kaliningrad.

The two teams are currently locked on the same points and goal difference, so if it finishes in a draw the group winner will be decided by disciplinary statistics - England have one less yellow card at present.

Dele Alli took part in training for England having sat out the 6-1 victory over Panama with a thigh problem, while tournament top scorer Harry Kane will be hoping to add to his impressive tally of five in two matches.
