Cesare Prandelli has ordered his Italian side to play without any fear against England tomorrow evening.

The two nations head into tomorrow's quarter-final knowing that Germany await the winner in Thursday's semi-final.

Looking ahead to the clash, Prandelli believes that his side can pick up a positive result if they retain their focus for the whole 90 minutes.

"It's going to be tough game and we must go into the game without any fear. Over the course of the 90 minutes we've got to retain our focus, so we can wait for our opportunity," he told reporters. "The side we're going to take on has a lot of good footballers. They are very organised, they don't just play all over the place.

"We've prepared by looking at England. What we've noticed is that they're one of the most organised sides in Europe. They focus on a small, 40-metre space.

"They're going to play at a high tempo and put their foot in but we need to take the initiative. For the first time in my two years in charge I've left everybody not knowing who is going to start."

Prandelli's side are unbeaten so far at Euro 2012.
