England vs. Spain confirmed lineups, starting 11, team news: Luke Shaw picked to face Lamine Yamal in Euro 2024 final showdown image

All eyes will be on Berlin on July 14 as England take on Spain in the final of Euro 2024.

After a superb month-long tournament in Germany, it all comes down to one game, as England aim for a first international title in senior men's football since their FIFA World Cup success in 1966.

Gareth Southgate's side have shown flashes of their quality to secure a first final appearance outside the UK, but it's largely been their grit and resilience that has kept them in the competition.

In contrast, Spain have stormed through each phase of Euro 2024, including knockout-stage wins over rivals Germany and France in their respective quarterfinal and semifinals.

Here is the latest team news and our predicted lineups for the final.

England vs. Spain confirmed lineups, starting 11, team news

Gareth Southgate has settled on a 3-4-2-1 system for England since the quarterfinal win over Switzerland.

Left-footed full-back Luke Shaw, who scored the Three Lions' only goal in the Euro 2020 final against Italy, gets the nod at left-wingback over Kieran Trippier, having overcome an injury that he carried over to Germany. After coming off the bench in the past two games and replacing Trippier at halftime in Dortmund, the Manchester United defender earns his first start of the tournament as Southgate tries to formulate a plan to restrict the dazzling Lamine Yamal on Spain's right wing.

Calls for the energetic Ollie Watkins to start ahead of Harry Kane, who has struggled to make a notable impact and cut a frustrated figure for much of the tournament despite getting on the scoresheet three times, were never likely to be headed after Aston Villa scored the winner off the bench against the Netherlands.  As expected, Southgate has kept faith with is campaign, who will lead the line ahead of attacking midfielders Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden.

England lineup (3-4-2-1, right to left): Pickford (GK) — Walker, Stones, Guehi — Saka, Mainoo, Rice, Shaw — Foden, Bellingham — Kane.

Injured: None
Suspended: None

Spain are boosted by two key returns in defence with Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand both back from suspension after missing the 2-1 win over France.

The pair come back into the starting XI in place of veteran duo Jesus Navas and Nacho Fernandez as part of Luis de la Fuente's first-choice back line.

Barcelona star Pedri will miss the final with a knee injury, meaning Dani Olmo keeps his place in midfield after scoring in three successive games for Spain.

Lamine Yamal turned 17 the day before the final, and the teenage sensation will start in attack, alongside captain Alvaro Morata — who is fit despite an injury scare caused accidentally by a member of security staff — and Nico Williams.

Spain lineup (4-3-3, right to left): Simon (GK) — Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Cucurella — Olmo, Rodri, Ruiz — Lamine Yamal, Morata, Williams.

Injured: Pedri
Suspended: None
