Italy have scheduled a pre-World Cup friendly with Sweden on November 18.

Sweden failed to qualify for the 2010 World Cup or the play-offs and will travel to the Stadio Manuzzi in Cesena.

The Scandinavians are still without a Coach after Lars Lagerback resigned in the wake of a poor campaign.

This will be the final match of 2009 for Marcello Lippi's squad, who also take on Holland in Pescara on November 14.
