ROY HODGSON has left Liverpool midfielder Raheem Sterling out of the England side that will take on Estonia in a Euro 2016 qualifier in Tallinn this evening.

Sterling has been dropped to make way for his team-mate, Adam Lallana, who is expected to play at the attacking apex of a midfield diamond.

Aston Villa's Fabian Delph also returns to the England midfield, replacing James Milner, who drops to the substitutes' bench.

In the final change to the side that beat San Marino 5-0 on Tuesday, Leighton Baines replaces Kieran Gibbs at left-back.

England have won both of their qualifying matches so far, and will start as strong favourites against an Estonian side that lost 1-0 in Lithuania on Thursday.

ESTONIA (4-4-2): Pareiko; Morozov, Klavan, Jääger, Mets; Pikk, Vunk, Vassiljev, Antonov; Anier, Zenjov.

ENGLAND (4-4-2): Hart; Chambers, Cahill, Jagielka, Baines; Wilshere, Henderson, Delph, Lallana; Rooney, Welbeck.
