There had been reports that Ross Barkley would start in midfield, but that has not come to pass.

Instead Ruben Loftus-Cheek has been given the nod to play alongside Jorginho in the engine room.

Christian Pulisic is on the bench, and could see first-team action for the first time since mid-August.

Malmö have named 19-year-old striker Sebastian Nanasi in their side.

A big night for the teenager against the defending European champions.
