Italy and both teams to score @ 3/1

While there is certainly pressure on Italy to reach the Euros finals, after they failed to qualify for the last World Cup, there is not as much pressure on them as there is for Ukraine, who simply have to win this match.

In the reverse fixture back in September, Italy prevailed 2-1 and we expect a similar outcome on this occasion. It will certainly be tougher on this occasion for the Azzurri, seeing as they won’t have a home crowd behind them. But they have more than enough quality to win this game even though they only need a point to progress.

Ukraine will be pumped up for this and will look to make things difficult for the visitors. They can get on the scoresheet again here but we are still expecting Italy to come away with the win.

Over 2.5 goals @ EVS

With so much on the line in this fixture, we could be in store for a number of goals in this one, and most likely at both ends. Ukraine unfortunately will not have home advantage as this is played at the BayArena in Germany, but they will take comfort in the fact that neither are Italy.

Both sets of attackers will want to go out and give a top-level performance because of how much qualification for the major tournaments means to the millions back home. There were three goals in the reverse fixture between these two teams back in September, and we feel that scoreline can at least be matched this time around.
