Chelsea youngster will earn second England start tonight

Gareth Southgate and his England squad have already qualified for the European Championships in the summer after defeating Montenegro 7-0 last week.

Now they have another Group match tonight against Kosovo and they have absolutely nothing to lose.

Southgate is expected to give opportunities to a few of his players on the fringes in the squad and as reported yesterday, one is likely to be Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi.

Now today Sky Sports have confirmed that he starts tonight as well as Nick Pope.

The Blues youngster will earn his second senior start for his country and will be eager to impress his watching domestic manager Frank Lampard.

Hudson-Odoi has only recently returned from a long term injury and is facing a fight to earn a regular starting place, with the good form of Willian and Christian Pulisic currently ahead of him.

Tonight will be a fantastic no pressure opportunity to show his clear talents once again.
