Hudson-Odoi has been handed his first England start
Raheem Sterling was England’s star man at Wembley, scoring three times, and will look to continue his stunning run of form in attack alongside skipper Harry Kane.
It won’t be an easy night’s work for Gareth Southgate’s side, however, with the intimidating Podgorica City Stadium proving a tough place to visit in the past.
England have not won in their previous two matches there, with Wayne Rooney sent off in a 2-2 draw in 2011 and Joe Hart hit by a variety of items as it ended 1-1 in another intense draw two years later.

Montenegro vs England: What the managers say
Ljubisa Tumbakovic (Montenegro):Â “I’m really trying but I can’t [see any weaknesses in England side].
“We in the coaching team who deal with the players are realistic.
“Things that happen in the past are just nice results for Montenegro, tomorrow we will play a match with totally different players, new coaches, with different capabilities and different ideas from both teams.”
Gareth Southgate (England): “I was here the last time England played [six years ago], so I know the passion that the supporters have here for their country.
“Of course, that gives a huge lift to their own team. But that’s the sort of challenge our players have faced many times before.
“We have to make sure our mentality and discipline are right, and we focus on the things we can affect.

“I think you need some experience but also this is where these young players learn. We don’t have a friendly for another 12 months so we’re going to blood them in the team, then we’re going to have to do it in international qualifiers.
“We’ll learn a lot more about them, they’ll learn a lot about international football, and they had one type of experience on Friday night, which was a really positive one and a smooth one.
“Now they’ve got to make sure they’re ready and adaptable to a different sort of challenge.”
