Bellingham is back in the squad having missed the September camp through injury and then being left out for the October games.
Villa star Morgan Rogers has shone in his absence and earned a fourth consecutive start against the Serbs at Wembley, keeping his place ahead of Bellingham and Phil Foden, who is also back in the squad.
Nico O’Reilly was handed his debut as the 20-year-old was preferred to Djed Spence at left-back.
Marcus Rashford was given a chance to nail down his place on the left wing amid an excellent start to life at Barcelona, as he came in for the injured Anthony Gordon.
New-boy Alex Scott was left out of the squad.
The 22-year-old Bournemouth midfielder helped England win the Under-21 European Championship in the summer and saw his fine form rewarded with a maiden senior call-up.
