Roberto Mancini is unlikely to make any unenforced changes to a successful starting XI on Thursday. They will look to at least earn a point from the match which will confirm their place in knockouts.

Donnarumma; Di Lorenzo, Bonucci, Chiellini, Spinazzola; Barella, Jorginho, Locatelli; Berardi, Immobile, Insigne
