The Italy vs Switzerland match opens the 2nd round of the group stage matches on Wednesday, June 16th. After crushing Turkey in the first round, Italy is aiming for an easy win against Switzerland, who allowed a draw in their first game. Let’s take a look at the different factors that can affect this H2H.
Italy
After 10 winning games in qualifiers, it wasn’t surprising that Italy managed to get the opening 3 points against Turkey. Having missed Mundial back in 2018, they are on a clear mission to get their revenge in this EURO season. Nothing can stop them on the way out of the Group A. They are a high-scoring team, so the trend of at least 3 goals in a game is likely to continue until they meet a more challenging opponent.
Switzerland
A clear favorite in the previous match, Switzerland allowed Wales to score in the last minutes. Although it probably won’t obstruct them from graduating the Group, this unexpected draw has surely dampened their spirits. Hopefully, they can fire the flames within themselves to show a good play against Switzerland.
Prediction
The history of matches between these two teams are noteworthy for the overwhelming dominance of Italy above Switzerland. They won 28 times, tied 22 times, and only lost 7 games. Both teams are strong in their own right, but Italy still holds the record for the number of goals scored to goals conceded. There can only be two scenarios this match can go down. The talents of these teams may cancel each other out, and it will be a tight low-scoring event. Alternatively, both teams will manage to score & Italy will win following the impressive streak they have going on.
