Southgate has struggled to find the right midfield balance, previously trying Trent Alexander-Arnold and Conor Gallagher alongside Declan Rice. If selected, it will be Mainoo’s sixth international cap. Luke Shaw is unfit to start but may feature from the bench. Southgate plans minimal changes, with Anthony Gordon and Cole Palmer also vying for spots. The winner will face Switzerland in the quarterfinals.
