On June 11, the opening match of the European Football Championship 2020 between the national teams of Turkey and Italy will take place. We offer you a forecast for this meeting.
Turkey
After several years of crisis, the Turkish national team has finally started to show decent football. The Turks have high hopes for the upcoming European Championship. At least, almost all fans of Turkey believe that their favorites will be able to pass in the playoffs. Only Italy looks clearly stronger, with Switzerland and Wales the Turks are quite capable of fighting.
Italy
Today's Italian national team is considered one of the strongest in many years. Roberto Mancini has finally managed to create a team for which there is no shame. The Italians qualified in one breath, winning all ten matches. Given that the "squadra azzurra" was not at the 2018 World Cup, it will try to show its maximum. And in the opening match, you have to win in any scenario.
Statistics and figures:
- Turkey has lost just twice in the last fifteen games;
- Italy have won eight matches in a row;
- During the seven official matches between these teams, Turkey failed to win even once.
Forecast:
Bookmakers have no doubt that Italy will not just win, but will do it as confidently as possible. This means that the goal in the performance of the Italians should be iron. At the same time, we expect a goal from Turkey. After all, in the last ten matches, the Turks have failed to score only twice. So in the opening game of the Euro, we expect that the bet will pass and both will score.
