GAME LOG
Unlikely to start vs. Ghana Saka is unlikely to start against Ghana on Tuesday, according to Craig Hope of The Daily Mail.
Impact Saka came off the bench against Croatia and recorded an assist, but he's not ready to start yet, meaning Noni Madueke could keep his place on the right side of the attack. Saka should be a starter when healthy, but it seems Thomas Tuchel is being extremely cautious with Saka's fitness levels, at least in the early stages of the tournament.

Substitute, earns assist Saka recorded one assist on one chance created in Wednesday's 4-2 win over Croatia.
Impact Saka would not enter the match until the 72nd minute Wednesday, as the team continues to be cautious with his return after some Achilles pain. He would find some decent work in his short appearance, as he found Maruc Rashford in the 85th minute for the final goal of the match and an assist. Saka will now eye a starting role as they head into their next contest against Ghana, likely to ramp up the minutes as they close in on knockout stage action after the key opening match victory.

Impact Saka is heading into England's World Cup opener ready for action, appearing to have no limitations as he takes the field. With England's opener possibly the toughest of their group stage, this is huge news for the team, as Croatia will be no easy feat. He will be tasked with running the flank and is one of the best odds of any England attacker to earn a goal contribution, hoping to get the tournament off right as England looks for World Glory.

Impact Saka has been struggling with an issue for months now, and is still going to be carefully managed going into the World Cup. It's hard to imagine England actually sitting Saka unless they are in a situation with the group comfortably in hand. Either way, this could be a sign that Saka will miss some training sessions and barring a new injury those misses are likely planned load management.

Creative threat on right wing Saka has been named in England's World Cup squad and is expected to be one of the most dangerous and consistent attacking outlets for England throughout the competition.
Impact Saka ended the season having been an important contributor to Arsenal's Premier League title-winning campaign, recording seven goals and seven assists across 31 appearances in 2,226 minutes in a season that, while not reaching his highest individual levels, still demonstrated his consistent quality as one of the Premier League's most complete wide forwards. The winger brings creative flair, directness and a relentless work rate that makes him a constant threat on England's right side, and his ability to cut inside onto his left foot or drive to the byline makes him one of the most difficult wide players in the world to defend against. Saka heads into the World Cup as one of England's most important attacking players and a player who should now be ready to deliver on the biggest stages.

Arsenal on the verge of Premier League title after beating Burnley

Gets assist Saka assisted once to go with three shots (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Monday's 1-0 win over Burnley.
Impact Saka was prevalent in the offensive third and eventually made the key pass to get an assist on Arsenal's only goal. He's slowed down substantially in recent weeks but should be in the starting lineup against Crystal Palace as the Gunners go for a league title. It's a good matchup for Saka to continue being productive, as Palace have allowed 49 goals on the season.

Scores heroic goal Saka scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Tuesday's 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid.
Impact Saka scored in the first half Tuesday, a heroic goal that sent Arsenal to the Champions League final. The winger was brilliant throughout, and sent his club to their first Champions League final in 20 years. Saka has had to be efficient with limited volume due to Arsenal's playstyle, but he has the talent to make it work with even a single shot.

Scores and assists in return Saka scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and four chances created in Saturday's 3-0 win over Fulham.
Impact Saka returned to the starting lineup for the first time since mid-March, when he played against Leverkusen in the Champions League. He scored and assisted in his 45-minute appearance, his first time scoring since early March. In the short appearance, he created four chances and took two shots. This season has been a quiet one for Saka, with seven goals and four assists, compared to his 16-goal involvements last season, where he played in fewer games than this year.
