Due to lack of match fitness, Mousa Dembele may not make an appearance from the start at Wembley, so Eric Dier is likely to start again in defensive midfield, potentially alongside Victor Wanyama. Their job as usual in the 4-2-3-1 will be crucial.

With Joao Moutinho set to start for Monaco in the middle of the park, he will be main playmaker, and this will be a very important battle that could go a long way to deciding the outcome of this match.

Dier has made a strong start to the season, and will have been glad to find himself back in his now more familiar central-midfield position on Saturday, and will have a big responsibility trying to stem the flow of the Monaco attack.
