Antonio Conte has named his starting XI for Italy’s second Euro 2016 Group E match against Sweden and the soon to be Chelsea boss has brought in AS Roma’s Alessandro Florenzi in place of Manchester United’s Matteo Darmian.
That is the only change Conte has made to his side as he looks to continue Italy’s momentum after the Azzurri defeated Belgium, who are the highest ranked team in Europe.
Conte seems to be looking for more attacking options with Florenzi, who is known for his marauding runs down the wing. However, the Roma fullback will be operating on the left side instead of the right.
Meanwhile, Sweden manager Eric Hamren made three changes to the side that drew 1-1 with Iceland. Erik Johansson replaces Mikeal Listig at right-back, Albin Ekdal replaces Oscar Lewicki in midfield, and John Guidetti replaces Marcus Berg up front.
Here are the confirmed starting lineups for the game.
