There could be a third international bow with Guehi’s club teammate Tyrick Mitchell among the substitutes and there is a real Eagles flavour to the squad with Palace’s on-loan Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher earning his second cap too while usual suspects in skipper Harry Kane, Jordan Pickford and Mason Mount are all in the mix.
Visitors Switzerland include Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka and ex-Liverpool playmaker Xherdan Shaqiri in their starting XI.
As for Switzerland, they have only conceded two goals in seven games so far under manager Murat Yakin, keeping five clean sheets. However, the Swiss have never beaten England on English soil in 11 previous attempts (D4, L7).
