Antonio Conte is the kind of manager who is getting hungrier and hungrier as he starts to eat. So winning against Belgium hasn’t satisfied him, now he will want his side to show even more. That’s his nature. In the past Italy have always been conservative in the second game of a group stage after winning the first, going with the typical Italian problem of struggling to give their best when the situation is too comfortable. This is where Conte can make a real difference.
What normally would be a game for Under 2.5 Goals, looks as though it will actually open up as the minutes goes by. Sweden will have to attack at some point having only managed a point in their opener and this could see the Italians make use of their favoured counter attack. Over 2.5 goals looks extremely well paid at 7/4.
