After starting the match in a 4-2-3-1, it appears as though Selles has changed his side’s shape to a basic 4-4-2. Maitland-Niles stays at centre-back beside Salisu, with Lavia and Ward-Prowse shielding the defence. Stuart Armstrong has gone out to the right with Elyounoussi on the left and Walcott up to pair with Adams.
