Wayne Rooney could be handed a starting berth against Scotland following Alli's injury. Cresswell, 26, has returned to the West Ham team after being out with a long-term knee injury and has impressed as he has helped turn his team’s fortunes around.

It is thought Cresswell’s inclusion is also to cover for Danny Rose, who has been struggling with hamstring and foot problems.
England top Group F with seven points from three matches. They play host to Scotland in a World Cup qualifier on Friday before facing Spain four days later in a friendly at Wembley.
