Bukayo Saka set to start for England vs Senegal as Foden or Rashford face World Cup omission

Arsenal star Bukayo Saka is expected to be in line for a recall from the bench by Gareth Southgate to start England's World Cup last-16 clash with Senegal. Saka was replaced by Manchester City forward Phil Foden for the Three Lions final group game clash against Wales after starting the two previous fixtures.

Both Saka and Chelsea star Raheem Sterling began England's campaign on the wings, with Southgate opting to use both for England's first two fixtures. Their respective involvements, a goal for Sterling and a brace for Saka, saw them keep their place for the match against the USA, but they were dropped against Wales.

Marcus Rashford and Foden came in for the final group game and both scored and played well, leaving Southgate with a challenging decision to make over who he starts against Senegal later today (Sunday).
