Take a look at the possible lineups for the encounter between England and Italy from Wembley in the Euro 2024 qualification group C.

Italy return to the scene of their Euro 2020 triumph at Wembley on Tuesday to face an England side enhanced by the emergence of Jude Bellingham as one of the world's best players.
Bellingham was an unused substitute when the Azzurri broke English hearts on home soil just over two years ago, winning a penalty shootout to extend the Three Lions' wait for major tournament glory.
Jack Grealish, Declan Rice and Harry Kane have also all moved clubs for more than 100 million euros over the past two years. Grealish, Phil Foden, Kyle Walker and John Stones were treble winners with Manchester City last season, while James Maddison has flourished since his summer move to Tottenham.
By contrast, Italy followed up their Euro success by failing to qualify for a second consecutive World Cup and still have work to do to reach Germany. Defeat in London would leave Luciano Spalletti's men level on points with Ukraine and facing a decisive showdown with the war-torn nation next month to qualify.
England possible lineup: Pickford (GK); Walker, Stones, Maguire, Trippier; Alexander-Arnold, Rice; Foden, Bellingham, Rashford; Kane.
Italy possible lineup: Donnarumma (GK); Di Lorenzo, Mancini, Bastoni, Dimarco; Frattesi, Locatelli, Barella; Berardi, Raspadori, Kean.
