Team News: Jackson Martinez, Shinji Kagawa start in Cuiaba

Colombia boss Jose Pekerman has named Jackson Martinez in his starting lineup for their final World Cup Group C clash with Japan tonight.

The already-qualified South Americans have the luxury of resting a number of key performers for the game, with James Rodriguez and Teofilo Gutierrez dropping to the bench.

Porto striker Martinez, who has been linked with a summer switch to Arsenal, spearheads the Colombia attack, while reported Barcelona target Juan Guillermo Cuadrado retains his selection.

Meanwhile, Manchester United midfielder Shinji Kagawa starts for Japan having been left out of the 0-0 draw with Greece, while Toshihiro Aoyama also comes in as Alberto Zaccheroni's only changes from last week's stalemate.

Japan: Kawashima, Uchida, Nagatomo, Hasebe, Konno, Yoshida, Okubo, Aoyama, Okazaki, Honda, Kagawa

Colombia: Ospina, Arias, Armero, Guarin, Valdes, Balanta, Cuadrado, Mejia, Martinez, Ramos, Quintero
