Euro2024 | Italy – Albania, the probable lineups: Spalletti between doubts and certainties

Here we go, now we get serious: it’s time Euro2024. Italy di Spalletti arrives in Germany as reigning champion and inaugurates the tournament against Albania by Sylvinho. The coach will start again from 3-4-2-1 used often, even in the last victory against Bosnia. The captain is sure of his place in goal Donnarumma. The three-man defense in front of him will consist of Darmian, Good morning And Sticks. Calafiori and Mancini start further away. In midfield we have to deal with possible absences: Fagioli and Barella are in doubt, which is why they will move to the center Cristante And Jorginho. He hopes for a starting shirt for Pellegrini, in a run-off with the other Roma player. On the flanks there is room for Cambiaso on the right (only bench for Di Lorenzo) and on the right Marco’s to the left. On the trocar, however, it is recovered Frattesi, who will then pair up with Church. He has the advantage for the centre-forward position Scamacca on Retegui. Below are the probable lineups.

ITALY (3-4-2-1): Donnarumma; Darmian, Good Morning, Sticks; Cambiaso, Cristante/Pellegrini, Jorginho, Dimarco; Frattesi, Church; Scamacca. Coach: Spalletti.

ALBANIA (4-2-3-1): Strakosha; Balliu, Ismajli, Djimsiti, Mitaj; Ramadani, Asllani; Asani, Bajrami, Seferi; Broja. Coach: Sylvinho.
