Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher is set to start for England in their game against Slovenia this evening, according to a report on the BBC. Gallagher has started from the bench in the first two games, with Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold starting in midfield alongside Arsenal's Declan Rice.

The Three Lions picked up a win in their first game before an unchanged team were held to a draw against Denmark the other day. The nature of the performance has led manager Gareth Southgate to refresh things, with Gallagher, who enjoyed a brilliant campaign at Chelsea, being given the nod to start the game today.

England are massive favourites for the game, with players like Phil Foden and Champions League winner Jude Bellingham among a group of talented English players who have struggled to replicate their club form during the Euros.

He said ahead of the game: "I don't get it, I don't get it at all. I'll defend all of my boys until the day I never pull on an England shirt. Trent is one of the best players I've ever seen. Don't call for someone to play in a position and then backtrack all because you think he's had a bad game or something. I'll tell you now: Trent can play in midfield. I've seen it at England, I've seen it for Liverpool, he's unbelievable. That's what I say to the people who say that type of stuff."

England are guaranteed to top the group if they can win tonight's game and boost their chances of winning their first trophy since 1966."
