Italy and Brazil will battle for top spot in their group when the two sides clash in Salvador in their Confederations Cup game.
Both sides have sealed their places in the semifinals, but a win will most probably see them avoid World and European champions Spain in the last four.
Brazil have been quite decent in their first two matches and with Neymar shining for his country in front of his home fans, Italy can expect a tough encounter.
"Neymar is one of the three best players in the world," Brazil manager Luiz Felipe Scolari told AS.
"In Brazil we all know what he is capable of and we have seen him do some amazing things for a 21-year-old."
However, while some of the attention will be on Neymar, the Confederations Cup has been marred a little by enormous protests from the Brazilian public, which has led to some suggestions the tournament could be called off.
FIFA confirmed the Confederations Cup would go forward, and Italy manager Cesare Prandelli insisted they have no plans to leave the tournament.
"Going back home is something we are not thinking about at all," Prandelli said. "Of course in the last few days the situation has changed because while we were in Rio, everything was fine, we went around the city without any problems.
"Then in Recife (where Italy played against Japan) and here in Salvador, because of the problems we have not been able to leave our hotel, so we are concerned. But have we thought about going home? Absolutely not.
"All demonstrations, if they are peaceful, can foster the improvement of a country, and they are welcome.
"But when they turn violent then of course they worry us and the concern now is that there are now so many people that it is difficult to control those who do not want to demonstrate in a civil manner.
"Now, looking at the images, we see they have moved from 15,000 or 30,000 people to a million people, so that is worrying."
Italy will be without the suspended Daniele De Rossi and the injured Andrea Pirlo for the game.
David Luiz has been passed fit after suffering a broken nose in the previous match against Mexico, while Neymar has shaken off a slight injury. Paulinho is also carrying a minor knock and could be replaced by Hernanes in midfield.
