Paris Saint-Germain boss Carlo Ancelotti backs his fellow Italian Mario Balotelli to shoot down England in their Euro 2012 quarter-final clash on Sunday.

Paris Saint-Germain boss Carlo Ancelotti believes that Italian striker Mario Balotelli will play a key role in Italy's Euro 2012 quarter-final clash with England on Sunday.

Ancelotti has also claimed that Balotelli's familiarity with his opposing defenders will aid the 21-year-old.

"Italy need Balotelli right now. He can be a crucial player for Italy and help the team to the European title this summer," Ancelotti told A Bola.

"Balotelli know the English defence very well. Lescott is his colleague at Manchester City. That could be a psychological advantage for him. Plus, he's faster than Lescott and John Terry put together."

Ancelotti made 26 appearances for Italy.
