The line-ups for the Italy vs Wales Euro 2020 group game have been revealed - and both sides opt for attacking lineups as they bid to top Group A. 

Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey and Dan James form a three-man attack with plenty of pace and intelligent movement. They're supported in the rear-guard by a three main defence as the Dragons bid to stop the Azzurri from continuing their promising start.

They'll be boosted by the news that red-hot striker Ciro Immobile is being rested. The Lazio man had scored twice in Italy's opening two games, but will have his feet up from the start in Rome.
