The one-goal lead is no guarantee and both sides are well aware of such. And to beat them, Potter will be able to unleash Christian Pulisic from the bench.

Kepa | W. Fofana, Koulibaly, Cucurella | James, Enzo, Kovacic (c), Chilwell | Sterling, Havertz, Félix

Substitutes from: Bettinelli, Bergstom, Chalobah, Hall, Loftus-Cheek, Gallagher, Chukwuemeka, Zakaria, Pulisic, Ziyech, Mudryk
