France has not particularly impressed us so far, but the elimination battles are starting now and the French have to show why they are holders of the title of World Champion in 2018. Didier Deschamps’ team, after the triumph against Germany, achieved two draws against Portugal and Hungary. Although this was enough to continue in next round and the group can be said to be the strongest, this does not justify them from now on and against Switzerland they need to be more concentration and struggle on the field. Dembele and Digne will be out, and the other players are expected to be available to coach Deschamps.

Switzerland had problems in the first two matches against Wales and Italy, in which they won only one point, but against Turkey the 3: 1 victory restored the players’ faith that they could fight forward in the tournament. However, the fact is that they must mobilize against France and not make mistakes, because they are against one of the favorites of this European Championship. The team has no injured players, so everyone is at the disposal of coach Petkovic, who is supposed to rely on defensive tactics and will counterattack his players to surprise the French in this match. France is the more experienced team and I guess they will be able to win and move on to the quarterfinals.

Prediction – home win – 1.55 from 22bet

Italy team showed that they are one of the contenders, and after failing to score the first half, despite their superiority in the match, the second managed to score 3 times in the door of Turkey. Definitely, the team is one of the favorites to win Euro 2020, with very good defense and fast attacks. Immobile and Insigne, who scored in the previous match, will be relied on again, and veterans Kielini and Bonucci, although 36 and 34 years old, will take part in the match, respectively. There was some criticism that they were elderly and needed new additions to the defense, but they proved that they could still be relied on and strengthened the Azzurri’s defense.

Switzerland is fighting for its first victory at this European Championship. The team was considered a contender for 1st place, along with Italy, but in the first match failed to show a very strong game. Wales were at a good level and opposed the Swiss, not allowing them to take a valuable 3 points. Now, this match is very important for the guests, as only a victory would calm the team before the match with Turkey. The tie will bring 1 point, but it will hardly be enough for them. The head coach of the guests Vladimir Petkovic has not announced significant changes in the composition of the first match, as it is possible with Italy to bring in the midfielder Denis Zakaria to help the team. Bookmaker 22bet offers a high odds for the option for both teams to score, and I think that despite the strong defense, Switzerland can score, as Italy can also do this and they scored 3 goals in the previous match.

Prediction – away win – 2.29 from 22bet
