All three Newcastle United players have been named on the bench for England as they prepare to face Senegal in the last-16 of the World Cup. Kieran Trippier, who started in the Three Lions' two opening matches against Iran and the United States, remains on the bench with Kyle Walker the preferred option at right back, while Callum Wilson and Nick Pope stay on the bench for the fourth consecutive match.
Wilson did come off the bench in two of England's three group games, even grabbing himself an incredibly selfless assist for Manchester City's Jack Grealish in the 90th minute of the 6-2 win over Iran, but still finds himself behind captain Harry Kane in the pecking order.
A win will send England through to the quarter finals of the World Cup for a second consecutive tournament, where they would face France on Saturday night after their 3-1 win over Poland earlier this afternoon. Elsewhere in the XI, Bukayo Saka is the only change from the 3-0 victory against Wales.

Saka has replaced Marcus Rashford at right wing despite the Manchester United man's impressive double on Tuesday. That means both Jordan Henderson and Phil Foden retain their places in the side, with Mason Mount on the bench and Raheem Sterling absent due to a family matter.
As for Senegal, Chelsea duo Edouard Mendy and Kalidou Koulibaly both start, while Newcastle -linked Ismaila Sarr is also in the XI. Here is the full England line-up this evening.
England line-up (4-3-3): Jordan Pickford; Kyle Walker, John Stones, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw; Declan Rice, Jordan Henderson, Jude Bellingham; Bukayo Saka, Harry Kane, Phil Foden.
