KEY STATS
PREDICTED LINE-UPS
Italy: Giuliani; Bartoli, Gama, Linari, Boattin; Galli, Rosucci, Caruso; Bergamaschi, Girelli, Bonansea
Iceland: Sigurdardottir; Atladottir, Viggosdottir, Arnardottir, Gisladottir; Vilhjalmsdottir, Brynjarsdottir, Gunnarsdottir; G. Jonsdottir, Thorvaldsdottir, S. Jonsdottir
THE PREDICTIONNeither Italy or Iceland were able to pick up three points in their opening group game and realistically, this match feels like a must win for both but particularly for Iceland with France on the horizon in their final group match. With that in mind, expect Iceland to deploy an ultra-attacking style of play in a bid to improve their potency in front of goal after only managing to score once against Belgium. Whilst this could reap reward, it may also see them caught up at the other end of the pitch with Italy a significant threat going forward and the Azzurri also desperate for victory. Therefore, regardless of who comes out on top, backing both teams to score has to be favoured.
