Estonia vs Italy prediction
Estonia have started their UEFA qualifying campaign for the 2026 FIFA World Cup with just one victory with four defeats in their five matches thus far, scoring just five goals in their five games. The Estonians most recently shared an underwhelming goalless draw against Andorra in Tallinn last month.
They now face an Italy side that began the Gennaro Gattuso era with a much-needed and simply thrilling victory against Israel last month in Hungary. They were 1-0 and 2-1 down before going 4-2 up and succumbing to being pegged back to 4-4 before Sandro Tonali scored a winning goal in second-half stoppage-time.
The Italians have an extremely strong side and will head to the Baltic state as firm favourites to make it three wins from three for the Azzurri for Gattuso.
Estonia vs Italy tip: Italy to win -1 handicap
