Switzerland vs Italy are set to face off in the 1/8 finals of the European Championship in Germany. The game is scheduled to take place at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.
Italy displayed a game with mixed performances during the group round of the Euro. Although the national team fell short of its ultimate goal, it managed to reach the play-offs and secure a respectable second place in the quartet. However, there are numerous uncertainties surrounding Spalletti’s team and their performance in the game. The Azure Army displayed a mediocre performance against all opponents, struggling to mount effective attacks. The team heavily depends on custodian Donnarumma, who completely secured the team a playoff spot with his exceptional saves.
Switzerland appeared to have a slight edge over the Italians. The standout moment was undoubtedly the 1-1 draw with Germany in the final group-stage match. Indeed, at that point, the Germans lacked any particular drive and had deployed a subsequent squad. However, the Swiss faced significant challenges, yet they managed to hold their ground against a formidable adversary.
