The most interesting game of the day
Portugal will face Italy in Geneva on Monday – the match is extremely important for both of them.
The Portuguese opening match ended with a crushing defeat in Spain 0-5, while Italy started the race with a 1-0 Belgian. However, the team’s ball game was not fully finished yet.
The Portuguese game is based on collectivity. Experienced Kika nazareth It is a key role in the offensive end, as his individual skills in Portugal most often breaks his opponents’ defense. However, a major challenge for Portugal comes in defense, which is severely groping against Spain. Overplaying should be avoided and marking. Portugal must be ready to hit the counterattack quickly and better than Spain, as Italy leaves space on its back. Fast attacks are the best weapon to wound Italy.
As a whole, Italy is very well organized and disciplined and is very difficult to undermine, especially in the lead. Italy is not known for its paint fireworks, and in the opening game, the finishing game was as familiar. In the ball game, Italy needs restraint and quality, especially for midfield feeder – there were many easy bait Öharho bait Öharho. Cristiana Girelli is the team’s number one gun that is fed as a target with long feeds. Girelli is great to play back towards the goal, but would need support closer.
Tactically, the match is expected to be tight and low. Portuguese defense is tested as Italy holds the ball and pressures. The line of defense must remain tight, and in particular Joana Marchão and Diana Gomes are key. At the same time, the lusitans have to stretch their shape wide when, among other things Barbara Bonansea rises to support attacks. There may also be unexpected difficulties with the Italian high press. Italy, for its part, must keep restraint and strive to grind patiently.
Italy is a favorite for the game, but Portugal is surprised if it is able to defend and take advantage of counterattacks, I have estimated the likelihood of Italy’s victory by 57 percent, while Veikkaus’ multiplier for the event is 1.67.
Surprisingly, the nearest 1×2 targets to play is a draw, which gives a odds of 3.70, with an estimate of 27 surfaces, ie the coefficient hits the limit directly. With a goal expectation, I am more to the Under than the market. According to my estimate, less than 2.5 goals are 57 % probability. The coefficient is 1.82 at a limit of 1.75. Thus, the small advantage is in the distribution, but until the recommendation of the game, this expectation is not yet available.
The match starts at 10 pm.
The best bet of the day
The best thing about the silent drawbar is less than 2.5 goals of the anticipated Portuguese Italy, as already mentioned. However, the expectation of the object is so low that the official game recommendation should not be given.
