Italy faces Wales in round 3 of the Euro group stage. The match will be played on Sunday, June 20th at Stadio Olimpico (Rome)
Italy became the first to advance to the knockout rounds. Moreover, Roberto Mancini's men played both previous matches in Rome. And they were as convincing as possible. Both games ended in 3-0 victories of Squadra Azzurra. The Swiss resisted even less than the Turks in the opening match. Chiellini scored a quick goal on Tuesday, but it was canceled after a VAR check. Giorgio did adjust the trajectory of the ball with his hand, albeit unintentionally. And in a few minutes, the experienced defender left the field. But the Italians managed without him. The hero was Locatelli, who will definitely not move to Shakhtar Donetsk now. In the middle of the first half, he promptly ran into the penalty area and scored his first goal. And right after the break, he also delivered a great from outside the box. Immobile also didn’t leave the pitch without a goal scored. Are we expecting Mancini to field reservists in the upcoming game?

The national team of Wales can limp on both legs. Nobody can call the football of the Dragons beautiful, but it again gives the main thing — the result. At first, Wales managed to snatch a draw in the game against the Swiss, although they played better. And then the Turks were completely humiliated. The scoring was opened at the expense of the prepared variation. Ramsey ran into the penalty area from the depths and outplayed the goalkeeper. However, he did that only from the 2nd attempt. It would have been much easier for Rob Page's charges if Bale had converted the penalty. But Gareth shot well above the crossbar. But it was he who provided Ramsey with a cool pass when he opened the scoring. And at the very end, Gareth helped Roberts to double the lead. The Dragons have four points and take second place, and even if they slip to 3rd line after the last match, it seems they will make it to the knockout rounds again. But it is obvious that even one point would not be superfluous, as it would guarantee the preservation of the 2nd place. Looking forward to defensive tactics from Wales?
Squadra Azzurra plays confidently against the Welsh. The Italians gained five victories in six head-to-head matches. Only back in 2002 did the Wales national team win 2-1 at home in the Euro qualifiers. Bookmakers believe that the Italians will win the third match of this group stage as well. Yes, the coaching staff will most likely not field the optimal lineup, but the visitors can also rotate. We bet on the victory of Squadra Azzurri with a -1 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Italy to win with -1.0 handicap
