England fans are being urged not to attempt to travel to Rome for Saturday's Euros quarter-final game against Ukraine.
Italy is on the Government's amber list for travel and the country also requires UK visitors to quarantine on arrival.
England secured a place in the last eight of the tournament, after an historic 2-0 win against Germany at Wembley last night.
Former England manager Sam Allardyce told LBC he is in no doubt that that England can beat Ukraine.
He said: "As long as they can lift themselves to that level they did against the Germans.
"They didn't need any motivation for this game whatsoever. Just ask them to be a little careful of maybe a touch of complacency, ask the manager to have a look round and say 'come on lads, this is going to be a difficult game."
