Italy vs England lineups and key players

Italy projected starting lineup:

  • Gianluigi Donnarumma
  • Emerson
  • Alessandro Bastoni
  • Leonardo Bonucci
  • Cristiano Biraghi
  • Sandro Tonali
  • Marco Verratti
  • Nicolo Barella

Nicolo Barella scored a goal in their 2-1 victory over Hungary. The Italian midfielder is a key player to watch out for. Barella completed the most dribbles in their 2-5 defeat to Germany. He created one chance during the game.

Italy vs England predictions and betting tips

England has looked poor in their last two games with zero wins in their last two games. They suffered a 0-4 defeat to Hungary in their last game and were poor against Italy as well. Italy has also been awful as they suffered a 2-5 heavy defeat against Germany in their last game. I predict a draw.

Harry Kane has been on form this season as he has scored six goals in the league. He became the youngest England player to reach 50 goals. Kane is one of England’s best scorers in history and I predict he will get a goal against Italy.
