Team news – Pulisic out injured, Irankunda benchedpublished at 19:19 BST
USA v Australia (20:00 BST)
United States manager Mauricio Pochettino is forced to make one change to the side that beat Paraguay 4-1 in their opener, and it’s a big one.
Christian Pulisic has trained on his own all week and failed to recover from a calf issue, so is replaced in midfield by Ricardo Pepi.
United States XI: Freese, Robinson, Ream (c), Richards, Freeman, Adams, Tillman, McKennie, Pepi, Dest, Balogun.
Subs: Turner, Trusty, Reyna, Aaronson, Robinson, Berhalter, Roldan, Arfsten, Wright, Weah, McKenzie, Scally, Brady, Zendejas.
Australia boss Anthony Popovic makes two changes to the Socceroos side that beat Turkey 2-0, and they come as a bit of a surprise.
The two goalscorers from that game, 20-year-old gem Nestory Irankunda and midfielder Connor Metcalfe, drop to the bench, with Mathew Leckie and Nishan Velupillay coming in.
Australia XI: Beach, Burgess, Souttar (c), Circati, Bos, Italian, Velupillay, Okon-Engstler, O’Neil, Leckie, Toure.
Subs: Ryan, Degenek, Geria, Metcalfe, Hrustic, Mabil, Izzo, Devlin, Trewin, Behich, Irankunda, Volpato, Irvine, Herrington, Yengi.
