Goal Scorer:
Netherlands
The Netherlands, meanwhile, have a major selection call to make in the final third, as the half-time introduction of Wout Weghorst against Turkey turned their quarter-final tie on its head.
Koeman is likely to stick with his starting XI on Wednesday evening, with Bart Verbruggen in goal, Virgil van Dijk skippering the side from central defence, and Xavi Simons playing a link-up role between midfield and attack.
Netherlands possible starting lineup:
Verbruggen; Dumfries, De Vrij, Van Dijk, Ake; Schouten, Reijnders; Malen, Simons, Gakpo; Depay
England
As the only specialist left-back in Gareth Southgate's squad, the return of Luke Shaw has been eagerly awaited: the Manchester United defender missed England's first four matches while completing his return from a hamstring injury, but after appearing briefly against Switzerland he has now declared himself ready to start.
Having impressed earlier in the tournament, Marc Guehi must now battle it out with Ezri Konsa for a place in defence upon his return from suspension, though it remains to be seen whether it will be a three or four-man rearguard that lines up in Dortmund - or a hybrid of both.
Harry Kane was taken off during extra time last weekend, but having since confirmed he was only suffering from cramp, the Three Lions' record goalscorer will be fit to build on a fine record in the European Championship's knockout phase: no player has ever scored more times in the elimination rounds (five, level with Antoine Griezmann).
England possible starting lineup:
Pickford; Walker, Stones, Guehi; Saka, Mainoo, Rice, Trippier; Bellingham, Foden; Kane
Prediction: Netherlands 2-1 England (after extra time)
