The word legend is very appropriately used here, as one of Wales' greatest ever players, wing wizard Cliff Jones, gives Wales a good luck message.

Moore, Mepham and Davies won't be happy to be left out but they'll understand the reasons why, it's down to protecting them.

Wales are 90% sure to go through and you don't want to lose them in the next round; they'll understand why they're not playing today.

It's understandable resting him because of the yellow card. The lad has done really well in the two games he's played, there was a debate about whether he'd play or not but since the first game he's more than justified his selection. He probably deserves the rest given what he's done.

It was back in the days when Wales had not qualified for a European Championship finals tournament.

Under Mark Hughes they missed out again on Euro 2004, losing a play-off to Russia after finishing runners-up in their group behind Italy.

But on a memorable October night in 2002, 71,000 fans inside the Millennium Stadium were thrilled as they stunned the Azzurri 2-1.

Now as they prepare to face the Italians again - this time at Euro 2020 in Rome on Sunday - can you remember the starting XI that pulled off that stunning victory?

Daniel James says Wales have "nothing to fear" in their final Euro 2020 group match against Group A leaders Italy in Rome's Stadio Olimpico on Sunday.

The Manchester United winger started Wales' draw with Switzerland and win against Turkey, and feels Italy know the Welsh are "no pushovers".

"I don't think you can ever write us off. Italy are a great team, but we go in believing we can win," he said.

James added Wales are "underdogs" who "truly believe we can go and win it".

Considering it scouting or a video nasty, but you probably need to see Italy's hammering of Switzerland to realise tonight is a tough, tough test indeed.

Manuel Locatelli's high-quality double and a late strike from Ciro Immobile seals a 3-0 win for Italy to clinch their place in the last 16 of the European Championship.

Italy manager Roberto Mancini hinted he would make changes - and he has delivered with eight from Wednesday's 3-0 win against Switzerland.

Paris St-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti is one of those who returns.

Alessandro Bastoni replaces injured captain Giorgio Chiellini in central defence, with his centre-back partner Leonardo Bonnucci taking the armband.

There are also recalls for Chelsea left-back Emerson Palmieri, right-back Rafael Toloi, midfielder Matteo Pessina and forwards Federico Chiesa, Federico Bernadeschi and Andrea Belotti.

The only players who remain from the Switzerland victory are goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, Bonucci and midfielder Jorginho.

Italy: Donnarumma; Toloi, Bonucci, Bastoni, Emerson; Jorginho, Verratti, Pessina; Bernardeschi, Chiesa, Belotti.

Wales captain Gareth Bale gives BBC Sport Wales his lowdown on his Euro 2020 team-mates.

Wales make three changes from Wednesday's 2-0 win over Turkey.

The three players who drop to the bench are those who are one booking away from a suspension: Ben Davies, Chris Mepham and Kieffer Moore.

Chris Gunter and Ethan Ampadu come into what looks like a back three, with Neco Williams recalled at left wing-back.

It looks like it could be a 3-4-3 system with Aaron Ramsey as a false nine.

Wales: Ward; Ampadu, Rodon, Gunter; C. Roberts, Allen, Morrell, N. Williams; Bale, Ramsey, James.

Stadio Olimpico is magnificent.

There will only be around 15,000 supporters in here today due to coronavirus restrictions. The stadium can usually hold 70,000.

But hearing the Italian anthem sung by the home crowd will be special.

It's overcast at the moment; muggy and humid. Playing in this weather could be tiring work.

Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey played leading roles during Wales golden summer in France in 2016 and, under the night skies of Euro 2020's eastern outpost of Baku, Wales' stars sparkled once more.

Good afternoon everyone.

Wales are in Rome, home to some of the best food and architecture on the planet.

Gareth Bale and company are so close to the last 16 they can almost taste it, but this evening they face a truly stern test against an Italy side that has been as impressive as any nation so far in Euro 2020.

Wales can design their route into the knock-out stages as they pass the Colosseum and Pantheon and head to the Stadio Olimpico looking to build on a fantastic display against Turkey.

Simply put, a point tonight against the Azzurri guarantees Wales safe passage to the last 16, while a defeat will likely still see them progress, but will test our mathematical capabilities.

Of course, it is still in Wales' hands to win Group A; they just need to halt Roberto Mancini's side's unbeaten run of 29 matches.

But why not eh? It's the Euros, Wales are flying again and anything seems possible.

When in Rome...
