England v Slovakia team news
Phil Foden left the England camp to attend the birth of his third child, but should be back in time to continue in the starting XI. Declan Rice and Kieran Trippier are expected to be fit despite managing their workloads, while Luke Shaw returned to full training and could be available from the bench.
Midfielder Ondrej Duda limped off with cramp during Slovakia's 1-1 draw with Romania on Wednesday, but will be fit to keep his place in Francesco Calzona's starting line-up. Striker David Strelec took Róbert Boženík's spot in the XI for that match but the latter could return.
