MATCH PREDICTION
The defending champions come into this one on the back of yet another failed qualification campaign for a FIFA World Cup. They needed some look to qualify automatically for this tournament ahead of Ukraine, too, but with Luciano Spalletti at the helm, they should remain a threat with genuine quality littered throughout their side. Sylvinho’s Albania took advantage of the underperformance of both Czechia and Poland in qualifying to win their group but back-to-back draws against Moldova and Faroe Islands to finish off their campaign would perhaps give a better representation of their overall quality. Due to the strength of Group B, Italy must win and could do with winning quite well – which they should be able to do.
