After Slovenia, Italy will face the Republic of Ireland in Vicenza: Di Biagio knows how important these two games are for their ambitions. “We have tested two formations during the last few days, 4-3-3 and 4-4-2. We can use both of them and also swap between them during the same game. All of my players are intelligent, thy follow my hints and train with great dedication.” The Azzurrini will make their last training session this afternoon at the SRC Bonifika stadium, where they will face Slovenia tomorrow (kick-off at 18:30 CEST). “I still have a couple of doubts, I will try to make up my mind during training. Tomorrow we will be ready.” The schedule (all CEST times) Wednesday, 7th October
