The match

Italy played in the first match of Euro 2020 and may well be in the last one too. They take on Switzerland in Rome in their second match in Group A after beating Turkey 3-0 in their opening match. Switzerland could only draw with Wales, so the first set of games in this group ended with Italy two points clear at the top of the group. They may not start their second match at the top, a Wsles win over Turkey earlier in the day would take them into first place. Italy should be able to win this match though and guarantee themselves a place in the knockout rounds. They are now unbeaten in their last 28 matches, last losing in September 2018. Italy have won their last nine games and not conceded a single goal in any of them. They are unbeaten in their last eight games against the Swiss with four of the last five drawn but no games in the past 11 years.

Switzerland thought they had scored  a winner against Wales on Saturday but VAR ruled it offside. They will be disappointed at not starting Euro 2020 with a win after taking the lead against the Welsh. A defeat here would leave them needing to get something from their final match against Turkey. Switzerland had won six matches in a row before Saturday's stalemate in Baku. Their away form is not inspiring at all. They won in Bulgaria in March but that's their only victory in their last six with two in the last ten. Back Italy to win this and have a side bet on them winning to nil.

Key Statistics

  • Italy are unbeaten in their last 28 games.
  • Italy have won their last nine matches without conceding a goal.
  • Switzerland have won two of their last ten away games.
  • Italy last lost a home game in 2016.

The bet of our experts

Italy are live contenders for Euro 2020 and can get their second win here. They were impressive in their opening 3-0 win over Turkey and again have home advantage for this match. The Italians aren't just winning but their defence is back to the kind that won them titles in the past. Switzerland could only draw with Wales on Saturday, losing this match is going to put them in danger of being elimiinated. They'd love to see Wales and Turkey draw earlier in the day. Switzerland have a poor away record, go for Italy to get the win and have a side-bet on them winning to nil.
