📑 Italy show perfection
Italy won against Belgium in the quarterfinals after a unique match. Overall one of the best of the tournament, if not the best. In addition, Squadra Azzura eliminated perhaps its biggest competitor. The Italians impress with their incredible press, great plays, speed, and energy. Overall, they look like a very well-oiled machine at the moment that can’t be stopped, and we expect that to continue even without Spinazzola who got injured.
👌 Spain’s energy can’t end
Spain somehow got here. We write somehow because the team does not impress either in defense or attack, no matter that it has scored 5 goals in 2 of its last 3 games. The Spaniards continue to win after the full 90 minutes. It was the same in the round of 16 and now in the quarterfinals against Croatia and Switzerland, although in both cases they were the stronger team. Specifically against Switzerland, however, the match was more equal and it seemed that fatigue, the absence of Xhaka, and the red card were the main reasons for Spain to have a certain advantage, but even so, it was necessary to get to penalties to win.
The Italians are favorites, but they are unlikely to score goals easily
Definitely, a far more impressive and confident team at the moment looks like Italy. Spain misses too many chances and is more permeable in defense, while the Italians have only conceded three goals in the last 17 games. We think it will be difficult this time to see the spectacle and the goals we saw between Italy and Belgium and here the match will be low scoring. Spain have their chances, so we will not choose a side here, and the forecast is Under 2.5 – Asian goal line of 1.63.
