Italy Preview – Will the European champions prevail in London?

Italy are in the 2022 Finalissima after winning last year’s Euros. The Italians were strong throughout the competition, winning their group before beating Austria, Belgium and Spain to book their spot in the Wembley final.

Italy went up against host nation England in the showpiece Euro 2020 final. They bounced back from an early setback to take the tie to extra time then penalties. Roberto Mancini’s men beat the Three Lions 3-2 on spot kicks to win the competition.

Our betting prediction:
Argentina to score first
10/11

Things have been tough since last summer for Mancini’s men, however, as they failed to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup after falling to a shock play-off defeat to North Macedonia in March. Still, can Gli Azzurri restore some pride with a win on Wednesday?

Argentina Preview – Can La Albiceleste extend unbeaten run?

Argentina won the 2021 Copa America to book their spot in this showdown in the English capital. They kicked off their campaign with a 1-1 draw with Chile but went on to see off the likes of Ecuador and Colombia in the knockouts to reach the final.

Argentina beat arch rivals Brazil in the 2021 Copa America final at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro. Angel di Maria netted the only goal of the game in the 22nd minute to secure La Albiceleste’s 15th title.

Italy vs Argentina Betting Advice

This will be the first meeting between the two powerhouse nations for over four years. When they last locked horns, goals from Ever Banega and Manuel Lanzini earned the Argentinians a 2-0 friendly win back in March 2018.

The last competitive meeting was way back in 1990, as the duo squared off in the semi-finals of the 1990 FIFA World Cup. After a 1-1 stalemate in Naples, Argentina went on to win 4-3 on penalties.

 

Key Facts – Italy vs Argentina Betting Tip

  • Italy failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar
  • Argentina are unbeaten since July 2019
  • This will be the first competitive meeting since 1990

 

Argentina are on a staggering 31-game unbeaten run right now, with their last defeat coming to Brazil way back in July 2019. They could be the team to watch out for in Qatar, but Lionel Scaloni’s troops will be hoping to lift another trophy before then.

Italy will still be gutted after losing in the World Cup play-offs, and we fancy Argentina to pile more misery on Mancini & Co. Back Argentina to win at 6/4. Also, put some money on the Argentine victory and both teams to score at 5/1.
