Luxembourg vs Italy prediction

Luxembourg come into this one on the back of a 5-0 aggregate thrashing of Malta in their UEFA Nations League League C/D promotion/relegation playoff in March, hopefully rounding off about a two-year stint in which they have majorly regressed.

Four-time world champions Italy head into this on the back of failing to qualify for their third successive FIFA World Cup. The Azzurri edged past Northern Ireland in their UEFA playoff semi-finals before then losing on penalties to Bosnia-Herzegovina in their final.

Italy are beginning a new era but things have moved slowly for their revamp and, while favourites, things may appear to get worse before they can get better.

Luxembourg vs Italy tip: Italy to win & under 3.5 goals
