The two sides will meet at the Bilino Polje Stadium in Zenica, which is found roughly 70km north of the capital Sarajevo. This qualifying match for the European Championship between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Italy is set for Friday 15 November. This will be the penultimate game for Roberto Mancini’s national side before they face Armenia on 18 November to conclude the qualifying round.

In their last meeting, which was played on 11 July at the Juventus Stadium in Turin, the Azzurri beat Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-1, thanks to goals scored by Insigne and Verrati which ensured victory after Dzeko had briefly put the visiting side ahead.
