England boss Gareth Southgate has included both Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Raheem Sterling in his starting lineup for the World Cup qualifier with Slovenia.

Both players have found themselves in and out of the side on the domestic scene for Liverpool and Manchester City respectively, but Southgate opts to give the duo a role in the first XI in North London.

Harry Kane captains the side in attack, while Marcus Rashford lines up on the left, with Eric Dier and Jordan Henderson taking familiar positions in the centre of the park.

Joe Hart retains his place in goal, with Kyle Walker, John Stones, Gary Cahill and Ryan Bertrand making up the back four.

As for Slovenia, Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak will win his 17th cap between the sticks, while 35-year-old Chievo defender Bostjan Cesar is also selected.

Rene Krhin, who plays his club football for Nantes, will start in midfield for the visitors, while Josip Ilicic will support lone forward Andraz Sporar, who is set to claim just his fourth cap.

England: Hart; Walker, Stones, Cahill, Bertrand; Dier, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Sterling, Rashford, Kane

Slovenia: Oblak; Struna, Mevlja, Cesar, Jokic; Bezjak, Krhin, Rotman, Verbic; Ilicic; Sporar
