    Southgate is expected to make key changes to his starting XI after scraping through to the quarter-finals thanks to a late comeback against Slovakia in the last-16. The Three Lions boss may line up in a new formation for the clash but Neville has urged him to stick with his trusted set-up.

    NEVILLE'S STARTING XI

    With Marc Guehi suspended, Neville believes Ezri Konsa should start in the centre of defence alongside John Stones, The Daily Mailreports. He has also suggested Trent Alexander-Arnold should start at right-back instead of the midfield role he has been playing lately, while Kyle Walker should play on the left. However, the ex-Manchester United full-back believes Jude Bellingham should play in attacking midfielder with Cole Palmer and Anthony Gordon on the wings in support of Harry Kane.

    Neville's full XI is: Jordan Pickford; Alexander-Arnold, Stones, Konsa, Walker; Kobbie Mainoo, Declan Rice; Palmer, Bellingham, Gordon, Kane.

  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Neville's starting XI would see Phil Foden and Bukayo Saka dropped to the bench for the quarter-final tie. England were given a significant boost when UEFA announced that Bellingham has not been suspended for the match after he was investigated over a gesture he made after scoring against Slovakia.
