Manchester United defender Daley Blind is set to captain Netherlands against England at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday night, having battled through an injury concern sustained in training.

The 26-year-old defender has started every United game since Oct. 28 but felt hamstring tightness while preparing to face England.

Blind sat next to his father Danny, the Netherlands manager, at the team's prematch news conference on Monday in London ahead of the England game.
