England vs Italy: Predictions
As reported by Standard UK, both of these teams have oceans of momentum behind them and picking a winner is extremely difficult. It will surely be a tense, gripping and tight affair between two excellent, confident teams, potentially decided by just the one goal.
England are undefeated in 15 of their last 17 games at Wembley Stadium in all competitions (D1 L1), scoring 46 goals and conceding just five.
We are backing England to get that extra push they need from another raucous home crowd.
England to win 1-0, finally ending 55 years of hurt, quite possibly after more extra time!

England vs Italy team news
Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka had been England’s only fitness concern, missing the thrashing of Ukraine before returning in place of Jadon Sancho in the front three to face Denmark.
Southgate stuck with a four-man defence against the Danes after previously switching to a three to counter the impacts of the German wing-backs.
The England boss will face a similar decision over his formation against Italy, while Jack Grealish’s substitution in extra time against Denmark having only come on in the second half of the initial 90 looked to be a tactical decision rather than being caused by any injury.
Italy are still without Spinazzola of course after the Roma full-back was stretchered off against Belgium and subsequently underwent surgery on a ruptured Achilles tendon. He will be out for several months.
Chelsea’s Emerson Palmieri deputized well for Spinazzola against Spain and will be expected to do so again on Sunday, according to Evening Standard.
