Every football fan is waiting for the last game of the exciting European football spectacle 2021 — the match between the national teams of Italy and England. The honor to host the final match of this edition of the quadrennial European Championship fell on the legendary stadium of the London Arena “Wembley”. The match is scheduled to kick off at 22:00 Moscow time.
Despite the complexity of the tournament path which both teams have passed, the final game will have to be extremely exciting and full of surprises. We hope that our prediction for the Italy – England match will be true and will allow the last bet on this tournament to yield winnings.
Italy national team
Squadra Azzurra reached the final, leaving behind a long and difficult path. After a pretty easy match in the group round which the Italians played brilliantly, the wards of Roberto Mancini had to cut the weapon from the ambitious Austrian national team and pass the Belgian Reduce: the 2-1 result of the ⅛-finals match against the Austrians; and the result was the same in the match against the Belgian team as Squadra Azzurra (Italy) won. In the semifinals, there was a match between temperamental Italians and Red Fury (Spain). This time, the national team of Italy managed to win only in a penalty series: 4-2.
England national team
The British team has had a long way to the success of reaching the final game of Euro 2020. They have never played in a UEFA European Championship Final until their recent successful qualification to the ultimate game. The last major achievement of the British team was reaching third place in the 1996 European Championships.
The current national team reached the Euro 2020 finals, never questioning the status of the tournament favorite. Successful games in the group round continued in the playoff matches. At first, with a 2-0 defeat of the German national team, then a 4-0 victory over the Ukrainian team in the quarterfinal match, and a 2-1 victory over the Danes in the semi-final.
Head-to-head statistics
Until the current finals, the national teams of Italy and England have played against each other 13 times in the framework of official tournaments. In previous matches, Italians won more often (7 victories), while England won only twice. The last game of two prefabs took place in the spring of 2018, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
Prediction
Based on the fact that the defense of both teams is the best in the tournament, we suggest the outcome of the upcoming finals will not be easy. The result of the match will be solved by either one mistake or a series of post-match penalties. Nevertheless, the prediction for the Italy – England match leans to the fact that the chances of success point towards the national team of England. Today, the British look more powerful than their opponents in the final.
Probable result- The victory of the England national team.
