UEFA EURO 2008 GROUP C Date: Tue 17 June Kick-off: 1945 BST Venue: Letzigrund Stadion, Zurich
France captain Patrick Vieira is out after admitting that he had not recovered from his thigh injury.
Defender William Gallas missed training on Saturday but is expected to play for France, who must win to progress.
Italy coach Roberto Donadoni made five changes before their last game against Romania and also altered the formation following a thumping loss to the Dutch.
It resulted in a better performance from the world champions, who will choose from a fully fit squad.
Vieira had harboured hopes of returning for the match, but told a news conference: "Unfortunately, the pain is still there and I don't know when I will be able to resume playing."
Italy were eliminated from the group stages of Euro 2004 despite beating Bulgaria in their final game.
At the same time Denmark and Sweden drew 2-2 to both go through to the knockout stages.
Donadoni's side could scrape through with a draw against France, but they are relying on the Dutch beating Romania.
A score draw would see Italy progress with a Netherlands win, while a 0-0 result would see the Azzurri requiring Romania to lose by at least 3-0.
The mathematics are easier for France, who know that they need to win to have a hope of making it to the quarter-finals.
One thing is for certain: at least one of the 2006 World Cup finalists will be heading home from the tournament on Wednesday.
"Nobody would have thought that Italy-France would be a last-ditch match," Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon said.
"Before the European Championship, this was supposed to be the biggest match of the group."

Italy and France will not face a penalty shoot-out on Tuesday no matter what the results are in the final games in Group C, Uefa has confirmed.
The European football governing body had suggested a shoot-out could be used to determine which of the two teams finishes bottom of the group.
But a Uefa official attempted to clear up the confusion over the matter.
"There is no way that France and Italy can go to a penalty shoot-out," a spokesman told BBC Sport.
The Netherlands have already secured top spot in the group but the other three teams in the so-called 'Group of Death' are still battling to clinch the other quarter-final berth.
A Romania victory would ensure their passage through to the knockout stages and effectively render the France-Italy game meaningless.
But on Monday it was claimed that should Romania go through and France and Italy draw then their group positions would be determined by a shoot-out.
However, Uefa has clarified that a penalty shoot-out would only be used to determine which team qualifies when two sides finish level on points and cannot be separated by goals scored.
Here is the official Uefa regulation:
"If two teams which have the same number of points, the same number of goals scored and conceded, play their last group match against each other and are still equal at the end of that match, the ranking of the two teams in question will be determined by kicks from the penalty mark, provided no other teams within the group have the same number of points on completion of all group matches."
GROUP C PERMUTATIONS
The Netherlands have won Group C and will play the Group D runners-up in the quarter-finals.
Romania will qualify for the quarter-finals if they beat the Netherlands, eliminating France and Italy.
If Romania fail to beat the Netherlands, the winner of France v Italy will go through.
If France and Italy draw, a point against the Netherlands would be enough to send Romania through. France must win to have any chance of qualifying.
If France and Italy share a score draw (1-1, 2-2, 3-3 etc), Italy will go through if Romania lose (by any score). In this scenario, Italy, Romania and France will be level on two points each but Italy would have scored more goals in games between the 3 teams.
Romania will finish bottom of the group if they lose and France and Italy draw 2-2, 3-3 or 4-4. France will finish bottom if they draw 1-1 unless Romania lose 3-0 or by a four-goal margin.
If France and Italy draw 0-0, Romania can lose by one goal, two goals or by a three-goal margin other than 3-0 but still qualify. In this scenario, Italy and Romania would have identical head-to-head records, but Romania would have better goal difference in ALL group matches or, in the case of the three-goal defeats, goals scored. France would finish bottom, having scored fewer goals head-to-head v Italy and Romania.
If Romania lose 3-0 to the Dutch, Italy would qualify with a 0-0 draw against France because of their superior coefficient points. France would finish bottom as they would have scored fewer goals head-to-head v Italy and Romania.
If Romania lose by four goals or more and the other game ends 0-0, Italy would proceed with a better overall goal difference than Romania. France would finish bottom as they would have scored fewer goals head-to-head v Italy and Romania.
If France and Italy draw AND Romania avoid defeat, then Romania go through.
