Macedonia-Italy: Belotti in place of Pellè

After the home draw with Spain, Ventura's Azzurri are playing another important part of qualifying in Skopje: Pellè out, Belotti-Immobile up front.

After the exclusion of Pellè, that of Gabbiadini. Completely different reasons however: while the former Southampton center forward was suspended for disciplinary reasons, for the Napoli player the reason is the caution imposed by the club after the serious injury to Milik on Saturday evening, during the Poland-Denmark match. With Macedonia therefore, a fundamental match in order not to lose contact with the first place in the group, which is the only one that qualifies directly for the 2018 World Cup in Russia, coach Ventura will line up the Belotti-Immobile duo in attack, with the returns of Candreva and Verratti in midfield and the confirmation of Romagnoli in place of Chiellini, not at his best and sent home.

Victory against Macedonia is a must, after the home draw against Spain: the opponents line up an attacking duo known in the Italian championship, made up of the veteran Pandev and the new signing of Palermo Nestorovsky.
