There are only two matches on the European Football Championship schedule on Sunday. One of them will be the clash between Italy and Wales. Who will be more successful?
Italy has won both opening matches of the European Championship and is already assured of advancing to the knockout stage. In addition, goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma has not scored once.
After their performance, the team of coach Roberto Mancini can be considered among the favourites for the overall victory. Ciro Immobile, among others, is responsible for this, as he has been successful in both matches.
Italy’s opponent on Sunday will be Wales. They have also made a good start to the tournament and currently have four points. It is therefore unlikely to finish outside the gates of the eighth round.
The biggest star of coach Ryan Giggs’ selection is Real Madrid’s Gareth Bale. Although he hasn’t scored a goal yet, he has two assists to his credit and has always been one of the best players on the pitch.
So what to bet on? We can expect Italy to save some key players for the knockout fights. Wales, on the other hand, are not sure to qualify yet, so the odds are 2.53 for them not to lose.
We can expect an even match in which many goals might not be scored. Italy has a great defence and it will be important for Wales not to score. So you can bet on a maximum of two goals at odds of 1.68.
