Switzerland vs Italy Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in World Cup Predictions
Switzerland will have the perfect chance to avenge their 3-0 loss to Italy at Euro 2020, when the two nations face off in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. The Swiss will be hosting the European champions, eying a third straight win in Group C and also seeking to close in on leaders Italy. Second placed Switzerland have six points from two matches and Italy 10 from four matches. Ahead of this game Switzerland beat Greece 2-1 in a friendly and in this clash, they will miss their skipper Granit Xhaka, who tested positive for Covid ahead of the Greece game. The hosts hope to improve defensively, having had no clean sheet in the last five matches, but they have just one outright loss in the last 13 matches – against Italy at the Euros. Twice in their last five matches, Switzerland have conceded three goals, but they’ve scored two or more in three of the five matches too. A shortage of clean sheets has seen both teams score in eight of Switzerland’s last 10 matches. At home, in World Cup qualifiers, they have no loss in the last 16 matches, winning 12. They are however winless in nine matches against Italy. The Swiss have just one win in 10 but the last six meetings have produced four draws.
Italy remain top of this group but have lost their fluidity, and going to this clash, they have three straight draws at 90 minutes. They have just one win in regular time in their last five matches but they hold a 35-match unbeaten run after their 1-1 draw with Bulgaria in the last game. Juventus forward Federico Chiesa scored the opener against Bulgaria, his third goal in the last five matches for Italy and he remains a key player here. The European champions have no clean sheet in the last five matches and both teams have scored in their last five matches. In World Cup qualification, Italy go to this game unbeaten in the last five, with three wins and two draws therein.

Our Switzerland vs Italy Prediction
Italy’s first game after winning the European championship ended in a draw, a result that is becoming really common in their matches. The most common stat though, which happens to be with both teams here, is the few clean sheets. Both sides have scored in Switzerland’s eight of the last 10 matches and the same applies to Italy in the last five matches. Both teams scoring still looks like a good pick here.
