So Dele Alli and Jesse Lingard will both start in midfield, with Jordan Henderson minding the shop.
Ashley Young gets the nod on the left, and Harry Maguire is preferred to the experienced Gary Cahill. Let us know your thoughts at #bbcworldcup.

Two former England captains there. Somewhere inside the Volgograd arena tonight's custodian Harry Kane will be going through his final pre-match checks.
How he would love to hit the ground running with a goal this evening...

If England's young players in the team or on the bench tonight need some inspiration before their Group G opener, they could do worse than listen to Sir Geoff Hurst, whose experience in 1966 might sound familiar to their situation now (It would be nice if a couple of them could emulate what he did next, obviously).
"I didn't start the first game (against Uruguay) and I wasn't disappointed with not playing - I was just happy to be sitting on the bench watching England," Hurst said.
"I had only played a few games for England before the World Cup started so my mental attitude was that I wasn't really under any kind of pressure, I was just happy to be there.
"I only came in to face Argentina (in the quarter-finals) because Jimmy Greaves was injured but I was ready. My attitude was right and I was ready to play - it's the same in life as it is in sport - when your chance comes, you have to be ready for it."

End of twitter post'We have got better players'published at 17:36 British Summer Time 18 June 2018
Tunisia v England (19:00 BST)
Frank Lampard
Former Chelsea & England midfielderI am confident England will beat Tunisia because we have got better individual players and, as a team, we have looked good in our recent friendlies.
But I don't think we should underestimate them and it will be a difficult game - the opening match of the World Cup is never easy and it is even harder because we are expected to beat them.
In this scenario, if you go into a game thinking that as a player, then it can affect you negatively if things do not go as planned - if, say, after 20 minutes you are not having the kind of dominance that you thought you would.

Image source, Getty Images"You're detached from the outside world. You're out of your comfort zone. You've got to occupy yourself."
That's how Rio Ferdinand describes the England camp at a World Cup.
It presents a challenge to the squad - how do they stay focused and motivated for a month without any home comforts or familiarity?
Some England players have already hinted what they'll do - and it mostly revolves around playing Fortnite and watching Love Island.

Belgium 3-0 Panama
Oh yes! Romelu Lukaku has his second goal of the game and it's a cracking dink on the run. Game over.
Here's Dries Mertens' fine opener, by the way:

'Kane's leadership will help bond the team together'published at 17:33 British Summer Time 18 June 2018
Tunisia v England (19:00 BST)
Image source, BBC SportAmong the England players who definitely have a point to prove at a major finals after what happened at Euro 2016 is Three Lions captain Harry Kane.
Kane did not manage to find the net in France but England's 1966 World Cup hat-trick hero Sir Geoff Hurst is confident he will put that right in Russia. He also thinks he is the right choice as skipper.
Hurst said: "I’ve bumped into him a couple of times in the last few months, and he comes across not only what you see on TV but personally as a very, very good and strong character, and a likeable character too.
"I think his leadership will help bond the team together. One of the most important aspects of winning a World Cup is not just the quality of players but the team spirit, the togetherness that you achieve over that month of the World Cup itself. They are key ingredients and Harry is a very good choice."

A touch of genius from Kevin de Bruyne sets up Romelu Lukaku for a nice diving header and that should be game over for Belgium.

When Gareth Southgate took the job the chief critique seemed to be that he was 'too nice' but in ditching Wayne Rooney and Joe Hart he's shown that to very mucn not be the case.

The inadvertenst discoveries of places to put on your travel wishlist.
Image source, Getty ImagesUntil about four days ago I could honestly say it had never crossed my mind to make a trip to Volograd, or Stalingrad as it was called between 1925 and 1961.
And then I started seeing some superb drone footage of the statue, The Motherland Calls, and now I really want to go.
Image source, Getty ImagesJust look at that! It's 85 metres high, weighs 8,000 tonnes and commemorates the battle of Stalingrad during World War II, where an almost unimaginable 2million people were killed.
