France vs Italy prediction
Zinedine Zidane’s tenure as France boss has begun with a couple of narrow and low-scoring victories, having edged past Turkiye with a Kylian Mbappe winner before a late Michael Olise stunner snatched a victory against Belgium in Brussels.
Italy now have Roberto Mancini back at the helm and the Azzurri started the latest new era with a 2-0 defeat to Belgium in Rome before an impressive performance to dispatch of Turkiye by four goals to one last weekend.
Italy will aim to play with slick counter-attacking plays here but France have to remain firm favourites for this one as they bid for more international silverware.
France vs Italy tip: France to win & both teams to score
