The Azzurrini had an extraordinarily controversial opening 2-1 defeat to France, as the absence of VAR and goal-line technology meant that the last-minute equaliser was not given, despite visibly crossing the line.
Coach Paolo Nicolato makes a few changes, bringing in Gnonto and Parisi to help imminent Newcastle United signing Tonali and Torino striker Pietro Pellegri.
Switzerland beat Norway 2-1 in their tournament debut and have some big names in the side, like FC Basel strikers Zeki Amdouni and Dan Ndoye, plus Parma midfielder Simon Sohm.
