England v Italy Betting Tips: Latest odds, team news, preview and predictions

After seeing off the Netherlands, England will be looking for another boost when they welcome Italy to Wembley for Tuesday’s international friendly.

Jesse Lingard’s first international goal gave the Gareth Southgate’s men a 1-0 victory over the Dutch on Friday, extending their unbeaten streak to eight matches.

Latest Odds

With just one victory to their name in the last 15 encounters between these sides, England are priced at 11/10 (2.10) with dabblebet to maintain the momentum with another impressive victory here.

Meanwhile, the Azzurri were beaten 2-0 by Argentina in their last friendly but can be backed at 5/2 (3.50) to bounce back by coming out on top in this one.

The sides shared a 1-1 draw when they last met in a friendly back in 2015, and you can get odds of 11/5 (3.20) on them cancelling each other out once again on this occasion.

New dabblebet customers can also get a huge 3/1 (4.0) on England scoring a goal in this match, with all returns paid in cash. £5 max bet, T&Cs apply.

Team News

Southgate is expected to rotate his squad to bring in the likes of Jack Butland, Eric Dier, Jamie Vardy, Dele Alli and Ashley Young.

Ryan Bertrand and Joe Gomez are ruled out through injury, with Jack Wilshere and Harry Maguire facing late fitness tests.

Caretaker manager Luigi Di Biagio should also make some changes to the team that lost against Argentina, although Giorgio Chiellini remains sidelined through injury.

Watertight defence

Although they have hardly been great viewing for the neutrals, the Three Lions’ last three friendly matches have offered evidence they are ready to compete with the best teams this summer.

England have now kept consecutive clean sheets against Germany, Brazil and the Netherlands, making it five games in a row without conceding a goal.

While they will back themselves to keep at bay an Italian team with just three goals to their name in seven fixtures, their own return of only three in five suggests goalmouth action is likely to be limited once again.

Predictions

With this in mind, odds of 6/4 (2.50) are well worth backing on under 1.5 goals being scored for the hosts’ sixth consecutive match.
