Pakistan chasing a third Asia Cup and Sri Lanka their sixth when the two teams will meet in the eagerly awaited final in Dubai on Sunday.
It is unlikely that both team will tinker too much with their line-up, although Pakistan will likely insert the players that were rested for the match against Sri Lanka on Friday, reports ICC.
That means a recall for Shadab Khan and Naseem Shah, with Usman Qadir and Hasan Ali the duo likely to miss out.
On the other hand Sri Lanka's XI looks very settled, with Kusal Mendis and Pathum Nissanka set to continue their flourishing partnership at the top of the batting order and skipper Dasun Shanaka likely to steer the ship in his pivotal role in the middle-order.
Likely Pakistan XI: Babar Azam (c), Mohammad Rizwan, Fakhar Zaman, Iftikhar Ahmed, Khushdil Shah, Shadab Khan, Asif Ali, Mohammad Nawaz, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Hasnain
Likely Sri Lanka XI: Kusal Mendis, Pathum Nissanka, Dhananjaya de Silva, Danushka Gunathilaka, Dasun Shanaka (c), Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Chamika Karunaratne, Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana, Pramod Madushan, Dilshan Madushanka
