Team News: Mats Hummels returns to Germany XI

Hummels returns to Germany XI

Bayern Munich centre-back Mats Hummels has returned to the Germany XI for tonight's Euro 2016 Group C clash against Poland.

Hummels missed the 2-0 win over Ukraine last time out through injury, but the 27-year-old has been reinstated into the team at the Stade de France, replacing Valencia's Shkodran Mustafi in the process.

It is otherwise the same team that started against Ukraine, leaving Mario Gotze in the false nine position.

As for Poland, Lukasz Fabianski has replaced Wojciech Szczesny between the sticks, while Kamil Grosicki has been given a starting role in place of Bartosz Kapustka.

Arkadiusz Milik, who scored Poland's winner against Northern Ireland in their first match, keeps his spot in the final third of the field alongside the skipper Robert Lewandowski, who will come face to face with a number of his Bayern Munich teammates.

Germany: Neuer; Höwedes, Hummels, Boateng, Hector; Khedira, Kroos; Draxler, Ozil, Muller; Gotze Subs: Mustafi, Schweinsteiger, Schurke, Podolski, Leno, Can, Weigl, Tah, Sane, Kimmich, Ter Stegen, Gomez

Poland: Fabianski; Piszczek, Glik, Pazdan, Jedrzejczyk; Blaszczykowski, Krychowiak, Maczynski, Grosicki; Lewandowski, Milik Subs: Szczesny, Cionek, Jodlowiec, Linetty, Boruc, Stepinski, Wawrzyniak, Peszko, Salamon, Zielinski, Kapustka, Starzynski
