- Nicolo Zaniolo, Leonardo Pavoletti, Armando Izzo and Gianluca Mancini are all in line to make their senior Italy debuts during the international break.
- Roberto Mancini handed 36-year-old Fabio Quagliarella his first Italy call-up since 2015 rather than picking Marseille striker Mario Baloteli. The Sampdoria striker is the top scorer in Serie A this season and could even start against Finland on Saturday.
