Italy vs Portugal tips

Supporter l'Italie en 2018 n'aura pas été une sinécure... Absente du dernier Mondial en***ssie et réalisant des performances plus que moyennes lors des dernières apparitions, la Nazionale inquiète. Au moment d'affronter l'actuel champion d'Europe, le bât pourrait bien blesser pour les hommes de Mancini. L'émergence d'une nouvelle génération de joueurs demande du temps et l'Italie risque d'en payer les frais pour quelque temps. Le Portugal, logique favori de ce match, doit pouvoir s'en sortir avec un bon résultat pour rester leader du groupe et maître de son destin.

The Italians won only two games in 2018 - and yet they are favored in the betting market. For example, the win rate for Squadra Azurra is around 2.20, while Portugal's win is around 3.50. The Italians are not in very good shape, while Portugal could celebrate some success recently. The individual advantages and the pressure of expectation speak for the Italians, who will undoubtedly deliver a highly concentrated performance. Cristiano Ronaldo will probably be missing the game. The Italians are already traditionally defensive oriented and despite the victory pressure will not move away from the focus on a stable defense. Under these conditions, fans can expect a tactically dominated game.

DRAW NO BET✔

Today's fixture looks set to be a low scoring encounter as Italy and Portugal are known more for their defensive solidity than their attacking prowess. There does not appear to be much to separate both teams and a draw looks the most likely outcome.
