Best Tip: Italy to win

This is a fixture that really only looks like going one way and, unfortunately for the home team, that way is Italy's. We predict Tuesday's visitors to Olympic Stadium Asim Ferhatovic will claim victory, and there's plenty of evidence to support that view in the sides' recent form stats, head-to-head (H2H) records and the odds from GB's top bookmakers too. They've made an away win in the win / draw / win market the most likely outcome, and give a best price of 1.60.
