In principle, England would be content with a draw today – the Lviv still have matches with the national teams of North Macedonia and Malta, where, with all due respect to their opponents, the British will definitely take points. But Italy, if it loses, will find itself in a difficult situation. The Italians have matches with North Macedonia and Ukraine ahead and there is a high chance of being left without a second major tournament in a row.

In the last round, Italy easily defeated Malta even without two important players – Sandro Tonali and Nicolo Zaniolo, who were involved in the betting game. Another thing is that the Italians could cope with Malta with a completely reserve team, but what will happen with England?
To be fair, it is worth noting that the Three Lions do not have all the strongest. First of all, we are talking about the injured Saka, as well as Ward-Prowse. But Southgate again called Henderson from Saudi Arabia. But in terms of composition and morale, England looks like the clear favorite.
It is not surprising that the probability “England will not lose or win by one goal” is valued at 1×1.79. Probability “the total in the match is more than 2.5” – 1×2.25. Here’s a chance Jude Bellingham to score against Italy – 1×3.75.
