Italy vs. Spain Final Betting Analysis
Spain has played great in their last couple, but the Spanish are up against it versus Italy. First, Spain has yet to find a true striker.
Ferran Torres, the likely starter at striker on Wednesday, is a Man City sub. Torres has talent. He’s not a take over striker the way Federico Chiesa, Italy’s starting striker, is.
Not only that, but Italy is rounding back into form. The 5-0 victory over Lithuania is a true breakout performance.
What Spain must worry about is that players like Utkus, Kean, Raspadori, and Di Lorenzo scored the goals versus Lithuania. On Wednesday, the Spanish should see Immobile, Insigne, Berardi, Barella, Verratti, Jorginho, and Chiesa.
Finally, the Azzuri play this on their pitch. All signs point to the Italians winning this match. Go with Italy.
