WHAT HAPPENED? Gareth Southgate has chosen to stick with the same XI that began the win over Iran on Monday. Harry Kane has shaken off a possible ankle issue to start up top with Harry Maguire fit enough to start, too. Gregg Berhalter makes one change to the side that started the 1-1 draw with Wales with Haji Wright coming in for Norwich’s Josh Sargent. Gio Reyna remains on the bench.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: England can secure a place in the knockout stage with a game in hand should they beat the US at a major tournament for the first time ever. As for the USMNT, they really need something out of this one to keep their World Cup hopes alive.

ENGLAND XI: Pickford; Trippier, Stones, Maguire, Shaw; Bellingham, Rice; Saka, Mount, Sterling; Kane.

USMNT XI: Turner; Dest, Zimmerman, Ream, Robinson; McKennie, Adams, Musah; Weah, Wright, Pulisic.
