Switzerland

The Swiss got to this tournament only from the second place in the qualifying, missing the Romanian national team. The team started the Euro with a victory over the Hungarians - 3:1, in the second round was not the best match against Scotland - 1:1.

The fate of the first place was determined in the last round against Germany, the Swiss played organized, opened the score, and then tried to keep the advantage, the opponent had little success in front, but still failed to win, the Germans equalized at 90+2 minutes. As a result, the second place in the group, which allowed to get through to the 1/8 finals.

Italy

The reigning European champions with great difficulty came out of the group, already in the first match against Albania was not all smooth, missed already on the 23rd second, but the match still won 2:1.

In the second round "Scuadra Adzura" looked helpless against Spain, but lost only 0:1, although here it was lucky that the opponent did not realize their chances, because the score could have been crushing. The moment of truth came in the last match against Croatia, where it was impossible to lose, the opponent led in the score in the second half, and the Italians could not get back, but by some miracle leveled the score at 90+8 minutes, this draw allowed to take second place in the quartet.

Interesting facts about the match and history of personal meetings

• The rivals have a considerable history of face-to-face confrontations, the Italians have the advantage, but not so significant. The last time the rivals met in qualifying for the World Cup-2022, then they drew twice, but the group was won by the Swiss, and Italy was left out of the tournament.
• Switzerland has not lost in seven consecutive matches
• Italy have scored more than one goal in only one match out of five.

Switzerland vs Italy Prediction

Bookmakers from the teams rightly expect cautious soccer, it may come to overtime or a penalty shootout. The Italians have a minimal advantage on paper, although this is a tribute to their status, because they are not better than the opponent. I will bet here on a total of less than 2 goals.
