• Atalanta striker Gianluca Scamacca withdrew with a knee problem, clearing the way for Moise Kean and Mateo Retegui to spearhead the attack.
• Norway lead the group on 12 points with a +12 goal difference, while Italy sit on 3 points from two matches, trailing Israel on 6 from three.
• Gattuso has scrapped the three-man defence for a back four and urged a blend of "humility and arrogance" after what he called an excellent first training camp.
