As it stands England are ahead of Belgium despite both sides having six points an equal goal difference and the same number of goals scored.
England are top because of their better discipline record, Loftus-Cheek and Kyle Walker are the only Three Lions players to be booked, while Belgium have picked up three cautions.
Kane is the tournament's leading goalscorer on five strikes, ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo (4) and Romelu Lukaku (4) and said he was did not want to be rested. "I want to continue the form I'm in, but whatever decision the gaffer makes we'll get behind," said the England captain after scoring three against Panama.
England XI to play Belgium: Jordan Pickford; Phil Jones, John Stones, Gary Cahill; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Eric Dier, Fabian Delph, Danny Rose; Jamie Vardy, Marcus Rashford.
