The England national team will face the Italy national team in Matchday 8 of the EURO 2024 Qualifiers on Tuesday, October 17, 2023. Live streaming of England vs Italy, preview, lineup predictions, and how to watch the match live broadcast, can be watched in this article.
In the final match of Group C EURO 2024 Qualification, England and Italy both have a chance to qualify for the finals, but there is only one direct ticket available. Who will advance to Germany?
The England national team will guarantee their place at EURO 2024 if they can beat Italy at home. With an impressive performance in the first meeting, Gareth Southgate and his team are very confident they can repeat their victory over the Azzurri. Since the 2022 World Cup, England has appeared very stable with 6 wins and 1 draw in the last 7 matches. They also showed offensive strength by scoring 19 goals and conceding only 3 goals.
Recently, ‘The Three Lions’ also won over Australia with a score of 2-0 in a friendly match ahead of the big duel with Italy. Almost all the key players have had enough rest and are ready to play hard.
England only lost Bukayo Saka due to a knee injury, but they still have many options on the right wing, such as Phil Foden, Jadon Sancho or Raheem Sterling, and up front, Harry Kane will be the spearhead supported by Jack Grealish and Mason Mount .
Italy is also no less tough under the tutelage of new coach Luciano Spalletti. Despite facing many problems, both from internal scandals and player injuries, the Azzurri managed to recover from a disappointing draw with North Macedonia to achieve 2 important wins over Ukraine and Malta. They also showed their ability to score goals with 11 goals in the last 3 matches.
The Italian national team is determined to win at Wembley to stay ahead of Ukraine, who will most likely also win over Malta in the other match. If Italy loses, they have to hope that Ukraine does not win by a margin of more than 2 goals in order to qualify as the best runner-up. Italy experienced a more complicated situation because they lost several important players due to injury, such as Federico Chiesa, Ivan Provedel and Mattia Zaccagni.
Head-to-head, England and Italy have met 6 times previously in EURO Qualification, with England winning 3 times, Italy winning 1 time, and drawing 2 times. England also came out on top in the last meeting in the first leg of Group C this year, winning 2-1 thanks to goals from Harry Kane and Phil Foden. Italy could only reduce the position through Kalvin Phillips’ own goal.
Plus, England also have a good record at Wembley, having never lost in their last 12 home matches in all competitions. They scored 37 goals and conceded only 5 goals in that time. Italy have also not lost in their last 4 away games in EURO Qualifying, but they have not won at Wembley since 1973.
So, with all the factors above, England and Italy will clash tactically and mentally in this deciding match. Both teams have offensive strengths capable of creating many goal opportunities. However, they also don’t want to take too big a risk because one point could also be enough for them to qualify. Therefore, it is estimated that the final result of England vs Italy will end in a draw.
