Title: Preamble
Content: After Spain's victory over Belgium, Portugal need a victory here – and a point at the very least - to give themselves a chance of progression. They lost to Spain in the opener, although the emotional nature of the game after Diogo Jota's death provides a caveat.
Italy, on the other hand, could confirm a spot in the knockout stages. An Arianna Caruso goal against Belgium was enough to get them off the mark with three points and they will be confident of adding to it here.
Kick-off: 8pm BST, 9pm CET
