Team news & predicted line-ups England (4-3-3): Ramsdale; Walker, Stones, Colwill, Chilwell; Rice, Bellingham, Foden; Saka, Kane (c), Palmer. Senegal (4-2-3-1): Mendy; Sabaly, Koulibaly (c), Niakhaté, Jakobs; N. Mendy, Ciss; Sarr, Diallo, Mané; Jackson. – Bukayo Saka has shaken off a minor ankle issue, while Jude Bellingham is set for his first England start on home soil since winning the Champions League with Real Madrid. – Senegal boss Aliou Cissé hands Premier League revelation Nicolas Jackson the lone-striker role as Boulaye Dia nurses a hamstring strain. Head-to-head record Played 1 — England 1 win, Senegal 0, Draws 0. England’s 3-0 victory in Al-Khor remains the nations’ only previous meeting. Players to watch • Harry Kane: Nine goals in his last seven internationals; closing on Wayne Rooney’s all-time England record. • Jude Bellingham: The 21-year-old’s drive from midfield is pivotal to Tuchel’s gegenpress philosophy. • Sadio Mané: Still the Lions of Teranga talisman; scored four in AFCON 2025, including the final winner. • Kalidou Koulibaly: Physical duel with Kane could decide set-piece dominance. Tactical snapshot Expect England’s full-backs to invert, creating overloads that force Senegal’s wingers to defend deep. Cissé’s side will likely sit in a 4-5-1 out of possession, springing direct counters through Ismaïla Sarr’s pace; England must guard against transitions — an area that troubled them in March’s 1-1 draw with Croatia. Betting odds & prediction • England 4/9, Draw 10/3, Senegal 11/2 (SBK) — early Tuesday prices. • Tip: England 2-1 Senegal. The Three Lions’ superior squad depth and home support should edge a competitive contest, but Senegal’s intensity means clean sheets are far from guaranteed.
