England take on Ukraine in an enticing Euro 2020 quarter-final encounter in Rome's Stadio Olympico on Saturday night.  

It's the first time Gareth Southgate' side will have played away from Wembley, having reached the last-eight without conceding a single goal. 

England were pragmatic but uninspiring as they cruised through the group stages with 1-0 victories over Croatia and the Czech Republic sandwiching an entertaining 0-0 draw against rivals Scotland. 

The Three Lions stepped it up a notch as they claimed an historic 2-0 win over Germany in the last-16, with Raheem Sterling claiming his third goal of the tournament, while captain Harry Kane got off the mark with a crucial header. 

Ukraine, managed by the legendary Andriy Shevchenko, have had a less straightforward route to the quarter-finals, having qualified for the knockouts as one of the four-best third-placed sides, before sealing a dramatic 2-1 win over Sweden in the last-16 thanks to a last-gasp extra-time winner.    

Wembley awaits the winner for the semi-final, which will be contested against either Denmark or the Czech Republic on Wednesday, July 7. 

With the clash quickly approaching, Sportsmail takes you through the all-important information.
