Slovenia have no new injury problems after their opening game, so a similar line-up to the one that started the draw against Denmark is expected.

Benjamin Sesko remains the talisman, with Oblak the invincible goalkeeper and goalscorer Janza, who is likely to maintain his position at left-back.

For Serbia, winger Filip Kostic limped off in the first half of the defeat against England, so he will be a doubt, but there are no other injury problems.

Serbia’s defense, especially Pavlovic, was at times unbalanced in the first half against England and although they recovered well, this could be the area where changes will be made. The likes of Milinkovic-Savic, Vlahovic and Mitrovic remain unbeaten, although Tadic could start against weaker opposition, and Mladenovic impressed during his appearance after replacing Kostic.
