Squad

As squad places have been *******, Italy's motivation may be a little lower than a Czech side yet to get their post-season preparation underway out on the pitch.

Many talented faces could feature, but a game likely to be disrupted by numerous substitutions is set to peter out into a score draw - keeping the Azzurri's unbeaten streak intact ahead of the Euros, while further boosting the Czechs' growing confidence.

I think Under 3.5 goals is a good bet to the game.

Italy Win • 1.68

Stadio Renato Dall’Ara will host Friday’s football game between Italy and Czech Republic, the two teams who prepare for the 2020 European Championship finals. The Azzurri aim to build on a thrilling 7-0 win over San Marino, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. You should bear in mind that Roberto Mancini’s troops are eyeing their eighth consecutive win in all competitions. Stefano Sensi has overcome his injury, while Bryan Cristante has been left out of the EURO 2020 squad.

The likes of Ciro Immobile, Lorenzo Insigne, and Alessandro Florenzi are likely to return to the starting XI. PSG midfielder Marco Verratti is unlikely to be risked. The Czechs, on the other hand, continue to rely on Bayer Leverkusen attacker Patrik Schick. Jaroslv Slihavy’s troops, though, failed to impress in a 1-0 loss to Wales in their last WC qualifier, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered.
