Italy v Costa Rica
Friday, June 20, 2014
Arena Pernambuco, Recife
Kick-off: 17.00 BST.
 
Team News Italy head coach Cesare Prandelli will have been boosted by the return to training of goalkeeper and captain Gianluigi Buffon.
The 36-year-old missed the 2-1 win over England with an ankle problem, but could return against the Costa Ricans.
Full-back Mattia De Sciglio is also thought to be nearing a return to action, but the match may come too soon for the AC Milan defender.
As for Costa Rica, they are likely to pick the same side that started against Uruguay, with Arsenal's Joel Campbell their lone centre-forward again.
Match Notes
Both teams recorded important wins first time out and so this tie is crucial for both.
The two men charged with scoring goals have Premier League links; Italy's Mario Balotelli infuriated and thrilled in equal measures at Manchester City while Costa Rica's Joel Campbell remains a work in progress at Arsenal.
The odds suggest the experts are not expecting another shock.
Stat of the game: Costa Rica have never won two consecutive games at the World Cup, but they have scored in all six of their World Cup games against teams from Europe.
 
Italy (Possible, 4-5-1): Buffon; Chiellini, Barzagli, Paletta, Darmian; De Rossi, Verratti, Pirlo, Marchisio, Candreva; Balotelli.
  
Costa Rica (Possible, 4-4-1-1): Navas; Gonzalez, Umana, Duarte, Gamboa; Bolanos, Diaz, Tejeda, Borges; Ruiz; Campbell.
Referee: Enrique Osses (Chile)
