Analysis Italy

The home team plays its 6th friendly match of the year. In the previous friendly matches they registered the following final scores: Italy (1‑1) Netherlands, France (3‑1) Italy, Italy (2‑1) Saudi Arabia, England (1‑1) Italy and Argentina (2‑0) Italy. They come to this match after a away loss against Portugal by (1‑0). Italy has won 6 and tied 4 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in all of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

The Italian national team heads to this game unmotivated after a 1-0 away loss against the Portuguese national team. Thus, the Italian side is going through a bad period, being that it registers four consecutive games without winning. The Italian national team usually plays in 4-4-2, favoring a faster style of playing. For this, it can count on the speed of Immobile and Zaza. It should be noted that the Italian national team has been decreasing in quality over time. Coach Roberto Mancini will not be able to count on Romagnoli for being injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Gianluigi Donnarumma, Leonardo Bonucci, Alessandro Florenzi, Giorgio Chiellini, Cristiano Biraghi, Nicolò Barella, Marco Verratti, Jorginho, Federico Bernardeschi, Federico Chiesa, Lorenzo Insigne.
