KIERAN TRIPPIER is set to start for England against Scotland – however he could be in a new position.<\/p>\n
The Three Lions face Scotland in a revival of their epic rivalry at Hampden Park tonight.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Manager Gareth Southgate is believed to have made a change to his defensive line.<\/p>\n
Trippier, 32, is set to be named in the starting eleven, however Sky Sports have claimed that he will be playing at left-back.<\/p>\n
This means that goalscorer against Ukraine Kyle Walker will keep his spot at right back.<\/p>\n
However, it does mean that Chelsea's Ben Chilwell could drop to the bench.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The report claims that the decision has been made to counter-act Scotland's Aaron Hickey, who will be up against Trippier.<\/p>\n
Hickey likes to cut inside from the wing, which would suit the right-footed Newcastle defender.<\/p>\n
Trippier is more accustomed to playing on the other side of the backline having played the role for his whole career.<\/p>\n
The match against Scotland follows England's 1-1 draw against Ukraine in a Euro 2024 qualifier on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n
