1. Mary Earps
The United goalkeeper has been Wiegman’s first choice between the sticks during the competition, conceding just once.
2. Keira Walsh
The City midfielder has been one of England’s unsung heroes in the competition so far and is expected to start in a midfield three again.
3. Ellen White
The City forward has scored two goals so far in the competition and sits just two away from breaking Wayne Rooney’s record as England’s all-time leading scorer.
4. Lauren Hemp
The City winger has been dangerous for the Lionesses down the left, scoring once and providing the same number of assists.
