Italy vs Switzerland Preview

Advertisment

After a stunning start to UEFA Euro 2020, Italy will look to bag another victory when they take on Switzerland in a crucial Group A match at the Stadio Olimpico on Wednesday. Italy pulled off a magnificent 3-0 win over Turkey and will be very confident going into the match. Switzerland, on the other hand, despite taking a lead, failed to clinch a victory and settled for a 1-1 draw against Wales. Italy have an impressive record against Switzerland and have won 28 of the 57 games. They are on an eight-match winning streak which holds them in good stead ahead of this match. With 29 goals and six assists in Serie A, Lazio striker Ciro Immobile will be a player to watch out for. The Italy forward has already scored a goal this summer and is among the players who can win golden boot.

Ukraine vs North Macedonia preview

In the next game, Ukraine will lock horns with North Macedonia in the Group C fixture. Ukraine pulled off a remarkable comeback to draw level with the Netherlands after being 2-0 down in the match. However, a late strike from Denzel Dumfries took the Netherlands over the line. North Macedonia, on the other hand, suffered a humiliating 3-1 loss to Austria in their opener. Both teams have a point to prove this week and would want to leave no stone unturned to open their account in Euro 2020.

Denmark vs Belgium Preview

Denmark will take on Belgium at the Parken Stadium on Thursday in a Group B encounter. Denmark has a stiff challenge against tournament favourites, Belgium, who thrashed Stanislav Cherchesov's Russia 3-0 on Sunday. It’s an emotional game for Denmark, who will be without the services of Christian Eriksen, who suffered a cardiac arrest against Finland. Belgium, on the other hand, will be without Leicester City full-back Timothy Castagne, who is ruled out of Euro 2020 after picking up an injury in the game against Russia. Borussia Dortmund midfielder Axel Witsel, Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne and Benfica centre-back Jan Vertonghen are also doubtful. Despite the injury concerns, Belgium is a formidable force and is in great space going into the match.
