Italy vs Switzerland Prediction & Tips
Italy is one step away from returning to the finals of the World Cup. After missing the 2018 edition due to the infamous Ventura management, Roberto Mancini’s team went on to triumph last summer in the European championship and now they are playing at home against Switzerland for direct access to the 2022 World Cup. The decisive challenge is scheduled at the Olympic Stadium in Rome against a team that has not beaten the Azzurri since 1993. Italy and Switzerland are level on points at 14 and an Italian success would make the decisive step also in view of the last delicate trip to Northern Ireland where at that point an equal to Mancini’s men would be enough. Italy has just returned from a 5-0 win against Lithuania in the last qualifying match played on 8 September and the Azzurri then played the Nations League Final Four in October, losing 2-1 in the semifinals against Spain. then winning the third-fourth place final against Belgium with the same result. Murat Yakin’s Switzerland, on the other hand, faced Lithuania in Vilnius on 12 October, winning 4-0.
