Liechtenstein vs Italy Prediction & Betting tips
Italy secured participation in the upcoming European Championship on Saturday. A match against Liechtenstein will follow on Tuesday. What can we expect from this game?
Liechtenstein:
Liechtenstein is working on a phenomenal series. Last Saturday, the mini-state for the second game in a row remained unbeaten. After the great 1-1 draw a month ago in the away match against Greece, Liechtenstein did not lose to Armenia either. In Vaduz, Yanik Frick took care of the equalizer in the second half, so that Liechtenstein managed to make the final whistle.
It was the first time since 2011 that Liechtenstein stepped down two games in a row without defeat. And the performance of eight years ago was achieved in friendly matches, in contrast to the two draws that Liechtenstein achieved in its last two duels. For a country like Liechtenstein, the challenges in such matters must be sought. On Tuesday, the team will of course be the big underdog again, against Italy.
Italy:
We will see Italy again in the final tournament next year. The team of coach Roberto Mancini also remained in his seventh qualifying match without losing points. At home against Greece things didn’t go smoothly, just like in many previous duels. Italy had a hard time, in a match against a defensive playing opponent. It took a penalty to put the Azzurri on the right track, in a game that ended in a 2-0 win.
“We have a team that works hard,” Mancini said after Saturday’s victory. “We still have time to improve, but I think we are not that far away from the strongest European teams in quality.” The coach might be right about that. For Tuesday’s game, it would not be strange if Mancini allowed other players a chance to play. There is undoubtedly the ambition to maintain the flawless series.
