Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Raheem Sterling, Kyle Walker and Danny Rose are also expected to be named on the bench.
Daniel Sturridge, Jamie Vardy, Jordan Henderson, Jack Wilshere, Nathaniel Clyne and Ryan Bertrand are in line to start as England aim to top Group B.
Slovakia could be unchanged following their win over Russia.
But they have six players on yellow cards, including Martin Skrtel, and another booking would see them banned from a potential last-16 match.
England need a point to be certain of a place in the last 16, while a win would mean they top the group.
In that event they would meet a third-placed side in the last 16, with that match set to take place on Saturday at the Parc des Princes in Paris, 34 miles from their Chantilly base.
"The important thing is to be in the last 16," Hodgson said. "We would like to win the group. If that means Paris, that's good, but all the venues are fine, so we don't want to win the group necessarily because it's Paris and it's a little bit closer to our base camp.
"We really want to win the group because it means we'll play against a third-placed team rather than playing a second- or first-placed team.
"Our motivation to win is there for all to see."
Victories for England and Slovakia in their second group game have put both nations on course for qualification.
Rooney, then aged 24, scored twice in a 4-0 friendly win the last time the sides met in March 2009.
Now playing in central midfield, Rooney is arguably enjoying his most influential display at a major finals since he burst on to the international scene with four goals at Euro 2004.
If Rooney, England's record goalscorer, features in Saint-Etienne he will equal Steven Gerrard's total of 114 caps - the third-highest by an England player. He will be one behind David Beckham, who holds the record for an outfield player.
