Switzerland vs Italy. UEFA European Championship Analysis and Prediction
@bookmakersSwitzerland
Switzerland advanced to the playoffs from second place in their group, remaining unbeaten. Murat Yakin's team made a strong statement in the opening match with a confident 3-1 win over Hungary. This was followed by two 1-1 draws against Scotland and Germany. Notably, this is only the second time in their history that Switzerland has gone through the group stage of a European Championship without a loss.
The Swiss team showed consistency in their group matches, playing steadily without any major dips, although they could have scored a second goal against Scotland. Today, they will play without key defender Silvan Widmer, who is suspended due to yellow card accumulation. This is a significant but not insurmountable loss given their depth of talent.
Switzerland has lost only once in their last 13 official matches, drawing seven times.
Italy
Italy faced a tough group and narrowly advanced to the playoffs from second place. Moreover, the team did not deliver a standout performance in any of their matches, attracting much criticism from fans and experts.
Luciano Spalletti's side won their opener against Albania, coming from behind to win 2-1. In the second match, they could not cope with Spain, losing 1-0 in a game where the score did not fully reflect Spain's dominance. Italy managed just four shots on goal, with goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma preventing a heavier defeat. In the third match, they avoided defeat against Croatia with an equalizer in the eighth minute of added time (1-1).
Today, they will be without defender Riccardo Calafiori, who is suspended. Italy has only one win in regulation time in their last five European Championship matches, drawing three times.
Prediction
Italy has shown their inability to dominate against strong opponents during the group stage. Switzerland plays organized defense and allows few chances on goal. Therefore, a match with many dangerous moments and goals is unlikely.
