Team Lineups,

It appears that England has a favorable advantage in today’s match. However, Koulibaly, Mendy, and Diallo of Senegal are expected to challenge England’s attackers. Gareth Southgate seems to stick to a 4-3-3 formation, and the predicted lineup for today’s match is as follows:

England are predicted to start at 11

(4-3-3 right to left): 1. Pickford (GK) — 12. Trippier, 5. Stones, 6. Maguire, 3. Shaw — 8. Henderson, 22. Bellingham, 4. Rice — 11. Rashford, 9. Kane, 10. Sterling

England has no injuries or suspensions, except for Ben White, who is out of the tournament.

In the win over Wales, Southgate used a 4-3-3 formation. He may continue to use an additional orthodox central midfielder as the tournament progresses, which could benefit Jordan Henderson.

Senegal’s predicted starting 11

(4-2-3-1, right to left): 16. E. Mendy (GK) — 21. Sabaly, 3. Koulibaly, 14. Jakobs, 22. Diallo — 26. P Gueye, 6. N. Mendy — 13. Ndiaye, 11. P. Ciss, 18. I. Sarr — 9. Dia

Senegal will miss Idrissa Gueye due to suspension, and Sadio Mane is out for the entire tournament due to injury.

With Gueye suspended and Kouyate injured, Nampalys Mendy could start in Senegal’s center of midfield.

Overall, Senegal are expected to line up in a familiar 4-2-3-1 formation for the match against England.
