Roy Keane tips Italy to beat England

Roy Keane has predicted that Italy will be too much for England in Sunday's quarter-final clash at Euro 2012.

The Three Lions managed to avoid holders Spain in the last eight after finishing top of Group D with a win against co-hosts Ukraine.

However, former Republic of Ireland captain Keane believes that the draw could work against Roy Hodgson's side in the short term.

"I just have a sneaky feeling for Italy," he told ITV.com. "The England boys seem to be on a high from avoiding Spain, and subconsciously they might underestimate the Italians."

The winner of the match in Kiev will be rewarded with a semi-final against Germany on Thursday after Joachim Low's side saw off Greece 4-2.
