Italy – Switzerland : Preview & Prediction
What an entry into contention for Italy! For the opening match of this Euro 2020, Squadra Azzurra met Turkey at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. And Roberto Mancini’s men have not done things by halves. Already having eight successes in a row, in all competitions, they had every intention of offering themselves another victory to start in European competition. Despite the goalless draw at the break, the Italian selection continued to dominate to find the fault in the second half. Thanks to a CSC from Merih Demiral, a goal from Ciro Immobile and a last from Lorenzo Insigne, Italy won with style during this meeting (3-0). A victory which allows him to take sole control of this hen at the end of the first day.
In the other match of the group, Switzerland fell from the top for its entry into contention in this Euro 2020. Yet accustomed to showing beautiful things in the biggest competitions, Vladimir Petkovic’s team failed to succeed. do better than a draw against Wales (1-1). Everything had started well with the opening of the score of Breel Embolo just after the break (49th). But it was without counting on the strength of character of the Welsh who managed to grab a point thanks to a realization of Kieffer Moore 15 minutes from the end of the meeting. A result that certainly does not help the affairs of the Swiss who have every intention of qualifying for the knockout stages. And it will be difficult to relaunch during this second meeting!
The Nati moves on the lawn of Rome to challenge the big favorite of this Pool A, Italy.

An ideal way to blow some executives off during the final meeting of the group stage! Chaining successes in recent months, Lorenzo Insigne’s teammates sent a first message during the opening match.

And for that, there is no doubt that the Italian players will not be satisfied with a score of parity against Switzerland.
