Ukraine and Italy will lock horns for a huge Euro 2024 qualification match on Monday, with both teams battling to secure second spot in Group C and a spot in next summer's European Championship.
Italy are currently second in the section and will qualify if they avoid defeat to Ukraine, but the hosts would book their spot in the finals with a victory over the Blues.
Serhiy Rebrov's side are third in the section but level on points with Italy, so a victory on Monday evening would see them claim the runners-up spot behind England and an automatic spot at Euro 2024.
Ukraine's hopes of being at the tournament would not end if they were unable to beat Italy, as they are well-placed for a playoff in UEFA Nations League B, but that has not yet been guaranteed.
The Blue and Yellows were not present at the finals of the 2022 World Cup, but they did qualify for Euro 2020, reaching the quarter-finals of the competition, losing 4-0 to England in the final eight.
