THE PREDICTION
USA recorded another solid win as they shutout Germany last time out
to make it five consecutive victories. They will now look to wrap their
Group B campaign up with a big win as they take on an Italy side who
have struggled all tournament. The Italians have scored just nine times
from their six games, conceding 37 in the process and this is another
daunting task for them in their final game. They allowed seven goals
against Canada in their latest outing and a similar fate lies in wait
for them here with the Americans able to win by at least six clear
goals.
