England take on Slovenia on Tuesday, while Denmark and Serbia clash in Group C’s other match.

The Three Lions, who have already secured a spot in the last-16, are the favourites to win the group, but Slovenia, Denmark and Serbia can all mathematically progress, so it’s all to play for.

Both matches get underway at 20:00 BST.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has been demoted to the England bench for their clash with Slovenia.

Conor Gallagher replaces the Liverpool man, in Gareth Southgate’s only change from the 1-1 draw with Denmark.

Only five defenders in Euro 2024 Fantasy have a higher ownership than Alexander-Arnold’s 22%.

Luke Shaw is back on the substitutes bench, meanwhile.

As for Slovenia, they are unchanged.

There is just one change to the Denmark side who drew with England. Victor Kristiansen drops to the bench, with Alexander Bah coming into the line-up.

That means Joakim Maehle, Christian Eriksen and Rasmus Hojlund all start.

Finally, there are three alterations for Serbia.

Srdan Mijailovic, Nemanja Gudelj and Lazar Samardzic replace Filip Mladenovic, Dusan Tadic and Dusan Vlahovic.

LINE-UPS

England XI: Pickford, Walker, Stones, Guehi, Trippier, Gallagher, Rice, Saka, Bellingham, Foden, Kane

Slovenia XI: Oblak, Karnicnik, Drkusic, Bijol, Janza, Stojanovic, Cerin, Elsnik, Mlakar, Sporar, Sesko


Denmark XI: Schmeichel, Andersen, Christiansen, Vestergaard, Bah, Hjulmand, Hojbjerg, Maehle, Eriksen, Wind, Hojlund

Serbia XI: Rajkovic, Veljkovic, Milenkovic, Pavlovic, Mijailovic, Ilic, Gudelj, Zivkovic, Samardzic, Lukic, Mitrovic

      1. Deulofail
        • 10 Years

      Tbf, he returned really well in his last FPL game

      I regret just owning him

    4. dirtmcgirt
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Even I wasn't that daft this match day. Though I went for vargas so I'm not that much better

  7. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 13 Years

    Injury time for Gordon, what is the point. Token gesture from Toothgate so he can pretend he is utilising his squad.

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Toothgate…. Would that be lips?

  8. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    Around 196 mins of football and not a single goal

  9. JBG
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    Awful shot Palmer... golden chance.

    1. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Our saviour 🙁

    2. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Atleast he got in a position to get a shot

    3. *Reformed-Character*
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      In what world is that a “golden chance” ….

      1. JBG
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 27 days ago

        Considering what England had served up throughout the match, that was a golden chance to score. Imo.

  10. PartyTime

    Predrag you Hero!

  11. jacob1989
    • 4 Years

  12. Feanor
    • 17 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    0-0 with Solvenia

    Another Southgate masterclass

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      0 must be his favorite number from childhood

  13. fish&chips
    • 15 Years

    Triple England D for the win

  14. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    Trent is the answer!

  15. F4L
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    if only Serbia drew with England. Could've been a winless group

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Yes! Lol.. all on 3 pts.. would have gone in the record books

  16. x.jim.x
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    Shouldn’t let anyone from Group C through. Horrendous football from all involved. Denmark in second without a win.

    1. jacob1989
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      They face Germany. And they are 2nd bcoz of higher coefficient rank than Slovenia. Lol

    Biggest load of guff I've seen.
    Absolutely bereft of ideas or creativity, I'm not even sure they can score against Switzerland or Italy.

  19. PartyTime
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    Give them the whole night & they still won’t score. Bunch of lazy men

  20. Football is home
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    1. Nomar
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Denmark

    2. Shark Team
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Slovenia bec they have less yellows

      1. Shark Team
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 27 days ago

        1. CoracAld2831
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 27 days ago

          It seems Denmark 2nd, Slovenia 3rd.

    4. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      I think it's yellow cards

    5. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Denmark second Slovenia third .

      Courtesy of BBC

      “They finished level on points, goal difference, goals scored and disciplinary record (6-6 on yellow cards).
      The next tie breaker was who had the best qualifying record - and Denmark finished above Slovenia - coincidentally in the same qualifying group - on head-to-head record, after both sides finished qualifying on the same amount of points too”

      1. jacob1989

    Embarrassing from England. Please tell me there are no Southgate apologists left after all these years!

    1. PartyTime
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      I was supposed to defend him but not tonight. Southgate is not the Messiah!

  23. jacob1989
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 27 days ago

    Southgate better make all his players keep practicing penalties.. he is gonna aim for 0-0 and win on penalties all the way to final and win euros

    1. McGurn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      He has his usual luck and has an easy route through now. Will prob get to the semis with awful football and get undeserved credit like he did in 98 and 01

      1. jacob1989
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 27 days ago

        Easy? Likely dutch italy and belgium till final

  24. Drexl Spivey
    • 8 Years

    Was this entire group just a tribute to Sam Allardyce?

    1. McGurn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years

    How is it decided which 3rd place team England face?

    1. Not again Shirley
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 27 days ago

      Very good question. I’m afraid I know not the answer. I have been told though it could very easily be the Dutch.

      1. jacob1989
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 27 days ago

        From my research, if czechs and Georgians don't win then dutch.
        If either of them win then likely group e 3rd place...so Romania perhaps or any of them really

      This explains it but it's a few minutes read you'll never get back 😉

        Thanks- see what you mean! I will just wait and see how it works out tomorrow

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 27 days ago

          No bother. Round of 16 deadline isn't until 17:00 on Saturday, plenty of time to look at WC combinations.
