The EURO 2024 Round of 16 tie kick off on Saturday at 17.00 UK time (16.00 GMT).
Italy will be without key defender Riccardo Calafiori when they face Switzerland in the last 16 at Euro 2024 today. The Bologna centre-back has so far carried his impressive Serie A form into the European Championship but two bookings have landed him with an automatic one-game suspension as the knockout phase begins.
The knockout phase of UEFA Euro 2024 kicks off on Saturday with the round of 16. The famous Olympiastadion will hold the first match of the latest stage, with Switzerland and Italy vying for a spot in the quarter-finals.
Switzerland qualified for the UEFA Euro 2024 round of 16 after finishing second in Group A behind Germany. Murat Yakin’s men are one of only six unbeaten teams in the competition and have given a good account of themselves thus far. However, they are becoming the draw specialists of the Euros and must step up in the final third to reach the quarter-finals.
As for Italy, they finished second in Group B behind Spain after a lacklustre performance in the opening round. The Azzurri won, drew, and lost one game each while conceding and scoring three goals in an uninspiring display. So, the holders are losing their grip on the European Championship, and Luciano Spalletti needs to galvanise his squad ahead of Saturday’s clash.

Switzerland and Italy most recently clashed in the FIFA World Cup 2022 Qualifiers, with both matches ending in a draw. The Hard Tackle looks closer at the encounter ahead of the latest meeting between the two sides.
Switzerland (3-4-2-1): Sommer; Schär, Akanji, Rodriguez; Stergiou, Freuler, Xhaka, Aebischer; Ndoye, Vargas; Embolo
Predicted Italy XI: Donnarumma; Darmian, Bastoni, Mancini; Chiesa, Frattesi, Jorginho, Barella, Dimarco; Retegui, Zaccagni
