Nico Raskin anchors the midfield alongside Mohamed Diomande.
Cyriel Dessers and Hamza Igamane lead the line in attack, where they are flanked by Vaclav Cerny and Ianis Hagi.
Among the substitutes for the Light Blues is Liam Kelly, Connor Barron, Tom Lawrence, Nedim Bajrami, Dujon Sterling, Leon Balogun, Bailey Rice, Findlay Curtis and Danilo.
