Italy vs France: Probable line-ups

Spalletti looks set to make a handful of rotations to his line-up following the 1-0 victory away against Belgium on Thursday night, as Monza’s Daniel Maldini, Juventus’s Manuel Locatelli and Moise Kean of Fiorentina look set to line up as starters.

Reports suggest that Nicolo Barella will revert back to a more traditional midfield role, which could mean Davide Frattesi and Nicolo Rovella dropping out of the XI.

There will be plenty of familiar faces in the France line-up, as Milan’s Mike Maignan looks set to start in goal at his club’s home stadium, as does Inter’s Marcus Thuram. Theo Hernandez is expected to miss out with an unspecified knee issue after missing training on Saturday.

Italy (3-5-1-1): Donnarumma; Di Lorenzo, Buongiorno, Bastoni; Cambiaso, Barella, Locatelli, Tonali, Dimarco; Maldini; Kean.

France (4-2-3-1): Maignan, Koundé, Saliba, Konaté, Digne; Koné, Rabiot; Olise, Nkunku, Coman; M.Thuram.
