Declan Rice is in midfield with Jarrod Bowen, Morgan Rogers, Marcus Rashford, Jude Bellingham, and Harry Kane all starting as attackers.<\/p>\n<h3>Notable Changes<\/h3>\n<p>There&#8217;s a few changes made to the lineup with Dan Burns dropping out and Bowen getting a start in the attack. Guehi coming in is a solid defensive partnership in the middle. Where the big question comes is whether this is more of a 4-3-3 or a 4-1-4-1 with Rice sitting and allowing those ahead of him to dominate the ball and pick Latvia apart. James&#8217; role will also be one to watch, he&#8217;s operated in midfield a lot for Chelsea and may invert to help Rice instead of pushing forward.<\/p>\n<h3>Latvia Team News<\/h3>\n<p>Zviedris, Balodis, Cernomordijs, Gutkovskis, Ikaunieks, Salvalnieks, Jurkovskis, Ciganiks, Zelenkovs, Jaunzems, Savelejs<\/p>\n<h3>Chosen England Squad<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Dean Henderson<\/li>\n<li>Jordan Pickford<\/li>\n<li>Aaron Ramsdale<\/li>\n<li>James Trafford<\/li>\n<li>Dan Burn<\/li>\n<li>Levi Colwill<\/li>\n<li>Marc Guehi<\/li>\n<li>Reece James<\/li>\n<li>Ezri Konsa<\/li>\n<li>Myles Lewis-Skelly<\/li>\n<li>Tino Livramento<\/li>\n<li>Jarell Quensah<\/li>\n<li>Kyle Walker<\/li>\n<li>Eberechi Eze<\/li>\n<li>Morgan Gibbs-White<\/li>\n<li>Jordan Henderson<\/li>\n<li>Curtis Jones<\/li>\n<li>Cole Palmer (injured)<\/li>\n<li>Declan Rice<\/li>\n<li>Morgan Rogers<\/li>\n<li>Jude Bellingham<\/li>\n<li>Jarrod Bowen<\/li>\n<li>Phil Foden<\/li>\n<li>Anthony Gordon (injured)<\/li>\n<li>Harry Kane<\/li>\n<li>Marcus Rashford<\/li>\n<li>Dominic Solanke<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Stay tuned for the England confirmed lineup.
