After taking all nine points from Group A, Italy go into the knockout stages with the aim of overcoming every obstacle and hopefully clinch the title.
The obstacle at the moment, comes in the shape of Austria who booked their spot with a second-place finish in Group C.
On Saturday at the Wembley Stadium, all eyes will watch as two promising teams show their quality with a quarterfinal spot on the line.
Italy to continue winning run
Italy have arguably been the best team in the tournament so far, winning all three group games and scoring seven whilst conceding none.
In their last group stage game, Pessina scored a lone goal against 10-man Wales to clinch top spot in Group A. They are expected to get the job done against Austria.
The likes of Ciro Immobile, Lorenzo Insigne and others have just to much quality for Alaba and co to handle.
The odds
Italy are huge favorites to win this game, with their odds priced at 1.46 by Betway whilst Austria have their odds pinned at 7.43. A draw has been priced at 4.19.

Italy predicted XI: Donnarumma, Toloi, Bonucci, Chiellini, Emerson, Locatelli, Jorginho, Verratti, Berardi, Immobile, Insigne
Austria predicted XI: Bachmann, Alaba, Hinteregger, Dragovic, Lainer, Grillitsch, Schlager, Baumgartner, Sabitzer, Laimer, Arnautovic
