Predicted England team vs Iran at World Cup as Gareth Southgate makes key Bukayo Saka decision

It's finally here. England's 2022 World Cup campaign gets under way today and the Three Lions find themselves as one of the favourites to lift the famous trophy.

Gareth Southgate's side will meet former Manchester United assistant Carlos Quieroz's Iran in Doha at 1pm today as they look to get off to the perfect start in Group B. The game is the first of three games they will play, with USA (Friday, November 25) and Wales (Tuesday, November 29) following today's clash.

Talk amongst supporters over who should start, what formation should be used and who will steer the country to glory has intensified since the Premier League came to a halt last weekend. However, the final decision lies with Southgate and his track record in his previous two major tournaments warrants complete trust in his squad selection.
