England vs Andorra: No Rice, No Pickford, No Kane - Predicted lineup for Saturday's World Cup qualifying clash
England continue their bid for World Cup qualification with an away clash against Andorra on Saturday evening.
Gareth Southgate’s men strolled to a 4-0 win when the two sides met at Wembley last month, with Jesse Lingard, Bukayo Saka, and Harry Kane on the scoresheet in that clash.
Since then, the Three Lions dropped their first points of the qualifying campaign in a late 1-1 draw against Poland, but still sit top of the table after six matches.
Going into tonight’s fixture, there is an expectation that Southgate could make several changes from his side’s last outing, with several key players potentially missing out on a starting role.
But who will the manager draft in to replace them, and how will an upcoming clash against tougher opponents Hungary influence his thinking?
We’ve had a look at how the Three Lions could line up this evening below…
1. Aaron Ramsdale
The Arsenal stopper has been in fine form recently, and could get the nod for his England debut in Andorra. Everton manager Rafa Benitez has urged Gareth Southgate to rest Jordan Pickford in at least one of this week's international clashes, and with a bigger game against Hungary on the horizon - and with a plastic pitch to contend with tonight - this could be Ramsdale's chance to make his mark.

4. John Stones
Slightly out of favour at Manchester City at the moment, Stones will be eager to get some minutes under his belt, regardless of the opposition. (Photo by Michael Regan/Getty Images) Photo: Michael Regan
