Spain v England team news
It's good news for Spain, who are able to welcome back two of their first-choice back four for Sunday's game – Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand were both suspended for the France game but are back available.
Alvaro Morata looks set to come through injury worries – having been taken out by a security guard in the aftermath of the semi-final – to start again, while with Pedri still out Dani Olmo comes into the XI.
England are free of injury and suspension concerns, bar ongoing questions over Harry Kane's fitness. It would be a huge shock for the Three Lions skipper to lose his place, even after Watkins's winner.
Luke Shaw's introduction at halftime against the Netherlands could signal he is in line to start the final but you wonder whether risk-averse Southgate may opt for Kieran Trippier, not least given the threat that Spain's wide players pose.
Spain v England predicted line-ups
Spain: Simon; Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Cucurella; Ruiz, Rodri; Yamal, Olmo, Williams; Morata
England: Pickford; Walker, Stones, Guehi; Saka, Mainoo, Rice, Trippier; Foden, Bellingham; Kane
