Abraham at top of his game
Tammy Abraham is a really interesting one. I think he's got a really strong chance of starting this match, which sounds extraordinary when you think Harry Kane has just reached 50 goals in an England shirt.
Tammy Abraham is a really interesting one. I think he's got a really strong chance of starting this match, which sounds extraordinary when you think Harry Kane has just reached 50 goals in an England shirt.
Kane has played both matches in this Nations League campaign so far though - against Hungary and Germany - while Abraham has not had any minutes yet.
He's in cracking form, too. Seventeen goals for Roma in Serie A and 29 in all competitions, the highest-scoring Englishman in Italy since Gerry Hitchens in 1962. That's the form he's in, so he's absolutely at the top of his game.
The battle for the understudy position in Gareth Southgate's World Cup squad is very much alive and well. Abraham will be desperate to start this game so that he can stake a claim for that with Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Patrick Bamford and Ollie Watkins not involved in this squad. A real opportunity for Abraham if he gets the chance
