Marc Guehi has won his fitness race and is expected to start England's World Cup quarter-final against Norway alongside a recalled John Stones in central defence.
Manchester City defender Guehi suffered a minor hamstring strain in the win over Mexico and has missed training sessions this week.
But he is set to be cleared to continue in the heart of England's defence.
He is expected to be playing alongside Stones in defence, who is set to be recalled into the starting XI for the first time since the opening game against Croatia.
Ezri Konsa is set to be moved from centre-back to right-back.
Declan Rice is fit to start despite a sickness bug that has hampered his involvement in the preparations for the game while Noni Madueke is expected to play ahead of Bukayo Saka in another change to the XI.
Stones, 32, has been a substitute in all the subsequent matches since Croatia. However, he played a key role against Mexico, coming on for Saka on 57 minutes following Jarell Quansah's red card.
Expected England team: Pickford, Konsa, Guehi, Stones, O'Reilly, Anderson, Rice, Madueke, Gordon, Bellingham, Kane.
