Line-ups: Camo completes trio
As expected, Italy will field a trident attack with Mauro Camoranesi and Antonio Di Natale at Hampden Park.
Roberto Donadoni had hinted he would field the 4-3-3 formation, that can mutate to a 4-4-2 when they lose possession, for the crucial Euro 2008 qualifier against Scotland.
The official line-ups have been released and Juventus man Camoranesi beat out competition from his club teammate Vincenzo Iaquinta to join Di Natale and Luca Toni upfront.
It is an all-Milan midfield, while in defence Christian Panucci starts at right-back despite Massimo Oddo’s recovery from a bruised foot.
Scotland lead the way with James McFadden as the lone striker and Paul Hartley in the holding midfield role.
Kick-off is at 17.00 at Hampden Park, but conditions do not look set to suit Italy, as it is raining heavily in Glasgow.
Scotland: Gordon; Hutton, Weir, McManus, Naysmith; Brown, Ferguson, Fletcher, McCulloch; Hartley; McFadden
Italy: Buffon; Panucci, Cannavaro, Barzagli, Zambrotta; Pirlo, Gattuso, Ambrosini; Camoranesi, Toni, Di Natale
