After 90 minutes only 7 forum users were right (including me) as the game ended in a draw. If we want to take the results at large, we can definitely admit that the majority of you guys were right!
In the end, I think Italy deserved to win both considering the overall Euro2020 performance and the character showed during the final.
Thread closes now, thanks everyone.
Topic: EURO 2020 England vs Italy - Poll ⚽ (Read 456 times)
I voted for Italy, I do not have too many reasons except that I really dislike when a match is decided by the decisions of the referees, the penalty kick that was given to England on overtime against Denmark was ridiculous, there was only a slight contact and it was of the kind that it is allowed all over the field and even after there was a review the decision was upheld, soccer is a contact sport so even if there was a mild contact it was not enough to justify the penalty kick being given to England, so for that reason alone I hope they lose against Italy.
We should just hope for a good match where the better team wins. This is not always the case in tournaments such as this. The technical data and statistics indicate that England should win, but I personally support Italy. And, as you pointed out, let's hope this isn't yet another case when the referee's mistake decides the winner.
Great thanks everyone. I'm very surprised about the poll results, it looks like the majority around here is either Italian or a wannabe Italian. 
I didn't expect this result before placing the poll but this is it.
Enjoy the match everyone, I'm gonna lock the thread by tomorrow.

The poll result shows that the winning is fo Italy, but almost every gambling site has provided with higher odds for Italy. I've placed Italy to win the match @3.4 as a single bet. The match seems to go close and end with equal goals and the extra time decides the winner.
I personally believe the match will end in normal time because if the match is decided on penalties then I am not sure about England, because Italy has a better goalkeeper I think to block the penalty kicks.
Gianluigi Donnarumma is the strength of Italy and the defense is the best and i am expecting England to struggle to score the goals and if the match goes to penalties then there is no doubt Gianluigi Donnarumma will take the team to victory as he has done that in the past and he will do it again and he is the best of this generation. 
I'm in the minority as it seems. I think England are one step ahead of Italy as they are going to play home. And this could be the biggest chance of England to win a title finally. I expect both teams to play extra carefully in this game. A game like this won't forgive simple mistakes for sure. I think this game will end in a draw in 120 minutes and England will reach the title after penalty shoot-outs.
Looks like you are no longer in the minority as even from the current odds it is clear England are the favourites, Italy @3.xx and England @2.xx. But indeed, if I may say I also really changed my mind because at the beginning I was very supportive of Italy no matter what, but after I realized and tried to convince myself where to support and the answer was England. But regarding whether the match will end in normal time or extra time, I personally believe the match will end in normal time because if the match is decided on penalties then I am not sure about England, because Italy has a better goalkeeper I think to block the penalty kicks.

Before it got to the final I really thought I would be seeing Belgium and England in the final, atleast that's what I thought, but now it's England against Italy, I have watched both of them, England has great players, very exciting young talent, like Saka, Foden, mount and more but Italy has professors of the game on the field, and Finals has it pressure, Manchester city found that out in the UCL finals. So at the point, Italy coach is more experienced than that of English coach, so looking at this, I predict Italy would win, but congratulations to England fob reaching the Finals after more than 5 decades.

There is every clear indication that italy is lifting the Euro 2020 trophy with a straight win. If I'm to predict this is going to be a 2:0 win against England going by the statistics of both teams during the tournament. England has not been in their best performance this season and might likely relinquish the trophy Italy. But it's a world of soccer where surprises are inevitable
Italy have been in good form since the beginning of this tournament,and so is England.Italy is strong defensively and offensively,so is England,so the both side have equal chances of lifting the trophy, but I predict England to win it by 2-1 in favour of England. 
Italy to win over all but I think the match will end in a draw probably 1-1 and then Italy will win on penalties. I would like to see England win it as they have been waiting for a very long time for this and it looks like they can finally make it happen but I do not know my brain tells me place a bet on Italy while I want England to win it.
I feel the same when I want to bet on italy but my mind says that england will win. This is a very tough decision to make when your bet is on the other team but your mind is opposite to which team you bet. This is similar to cricket where I bet on pakistan but my mind think that england will win and i'm correct which england won and my bet is on pakistan. This match will be good to watch Italy vs england. I think there wikl be another penalty here .

I find it surprising that the poll shows how the community is overwhelmingly pro-Italy, even though bookies believe in England's win. Even a draw is apparently more likely than Italy winning the game. And I get why England is a favorite, they have a very strong team comprised of people who are themselves strong players from top football clubs. England also has a home advantage IMO, as the match will be in London. That being said, I think Italy is capable of winning, and I've placed a small bet in its favor today to support it.
in my opinion italy have more chance and they will win the cup prediction of match for 90 minute the match will be very difficult and the draw can be the final results italy played good game sice the first match of euro , espicially the first tour of groupe this genre of this match is not easy for betting , and should avoid betting what you cannot affrod because the results past matchs of this european championchip was not predicted , for example many bettors were expecting France or Germany to be one of the favorites to win the cup but we have not see that

Just like me, England is indeed very favored by football fans, in fact they were able to only concede 1 goal until this final, but all the evidence will happen in the field, if asked to guess the score between Italy vs England I will be more inclined to England even though it doesn't rule out the possibility Italy can also win.
Prediction:
1. Italy 0 - 1 England
2. Italy 1 - 0 England
3. Italy 0 - 2 England
They won't lose badly and this will be the area where England play at Wembley
Maybe the English fans will cheer with full ambition for their players.
However it is a shame of course to have England national team playing at the Wembley on a finals game, that just doesn't sound fair, I know it was probably designed that way a billion years ago so even if England lost this finals would be there but it is still dangerously unfair to Italy to send them there, how about playing in Rome? Would that be fine and understandable? I am sure the English would not like that neither.
England play the Euro in their nation. I don't know how it goes like this but of course, it was scheduled since the start of Euro, not before the final match. The schedule does not matter if they can not finish their tasks and have a spot in the final match.Now, please skip all of those things and let's focus to watch & enjoy the final match. It will be great!
The Italian will ensure that those records will not be broken playing 33 matches unbeaten isn't an easy feat, defensively the team is good with the pair of experienced Giorgio Chiellini and Bonucci marshalling their defence lines although playing on England soil (Wembley) is an advantage to the England team however I believe the had what it takes to beat England having been unarguable one of the best team in this competition that is why I voted for them to win the cup the disappointment of not qualifying to the last world cup had paid off for them
Italy want to win it and become a new champion of Euro. Unbeaten record will be useless if they can not win the final match. It matters more than the unbeaten record. Having a record is good but the championship is better.Chiellini will come back to Wembley after 14 years since the last time he stepped on the stadium with U21 Italy.
I voted for England in the poll.
Recently I realized it looks like England have the ability to win the final match, even though before this Euro event started I predicted Italy would be champion and at least my prediction was correct so far. Because with Italy being able to penetrate to the final, at least my prediction is just one step away from becoming a reality.
But somehow after seeing some matches and some considerations I made, my mind changed about Italy as I predicted at the beginning, because this final will be at Wembley then of course England have many chances to win. Also, recently there was news about a covid-19 case from one of the crew or whatever from someone from Italy, I still don't know the truth but at least the issue has had an impact on the team I think.

I have to say where you play doesn't really matter "that" much when you have just one game left. However it is a shame of course to have England national team playing at the Wembley on a finals game, that just doesn't sound fair, I know it was probably designed that way a billion years ago so even if England lost this finals would be there but it is still dangerously unfair to Italy to send them there, how about playing in Rome? Would that be fine and understandable? I am sure the English would not like that neither.In any case Italy is just way too good, they have been playing perfect football for the past 30+ games and I do not think that it will change for this tournament, they have been good waaaaaay before the tournament even started and showed how awesome they are so far as well. I just hope there are no injuries and everyone has fun.
Italy haven't lost in how many games? Isn't it closing in on 30 games now?
Their unbeaten run has extended to 33 matches so far [27 wins and 6 draws].Personally, I'd prefer England to win it but despite playing in Wembley, I have a strong feeling that Italy would come out as winners [collectively, they play smarter].
- I'm expecting a draw in regular time [both teams to score] and Italy winning it in penalties.
The match could turn anyway but I think italy will play fairly well they now face a strong italian side who are still on the roster after the final semi final win over spain which ended in a penalty shootout. Beyond the strong and veteran defensive partnership of giorgio chiellini and leonardo banucci it will be a difficult task for the england forwards, while I have the potential to provide a lot of headaches in a thunderstorm attack from monsini's squad.
As per the community here, Italy seems favorite and rightly so. Italy was runner up in 2000 and 2012 Euro finals and they will desperately want to win this match.

This final match for sure will be hard to predict. But due to the venue where the game will be played is at Wembley, England are at a slight advantage. England could take advantage of the crowd to pump their spirits and play better.
Italy haven't lost in how many games? Isn't it closing in on 30 games now?
Before the match they won against Belgium, their unbeaten run was undervalued because people said that Italy did not play with big opponents. The match with Belgium changed all because Italy did dominate that match.Again, the match against Spain shows Italy are very experienced and smart with their tactics.

I want Italy to win but I don't want to see the match goes to penalties. In penalties, no one can be sure what team will win. I see Donnaruma is very good in penalty saves but I don't want to see it.Personally, I'd prefer England to win it but despite playing in Wembley, I have a strong feeling that Italy would come out as winners [collectively, they play smarter].

Is it the first Euro final match for England? Italy has more experience in big matches, especially finals in both World Cup and Euro.

I don't have any strong feelings either way for England or Italy, but I just feel that England seem to collapse under pressure, at least from a historic point of view. Italy on the other hand are formidable, and are probably on one of their best runs in history. I just think this Italy squad has too much for England, and that isn't based on the skill difference, but rather their collective state right now.

I think its a wise bet to make for both teams to score. England simply have too many dangerous players for them not to be expected to score. While their defense has been good, there is definitely a few players in that squad that are a little suspect to the pressure. I'm still sticking to my 1-0 prediction, mainly for the odds, and value of the bet.

Nah. Ods are too close (2.7 for England and 3.1 for Italy). And close match, if we look into the ods, like Belgium Italy ended up in far more number of goals. like 3 and more.

I see that a lot of people don't like England (for Italy there is 22 votes and for England - 0nly 6) and hople that Italy will win. The same as me
England looks like more skilled, but Italy too good in attack, so this will be an excitement match for sure.
Wales should be free. Go fish

I don't quite understand the meaning of this discussion if England wins, (+ It is not entirely clear to me why one more additional thread should be created, because the discussion of Euro 2020 is in a neighboring thread, created long ago). But I agree with SFR10, England really deserves to win as they are the only top national team that has never won this tournament, (not to mention the fact that the England team costs about a billion dollars). 
I've voted for England. Because first of all, the final game is in Wembley. They are just too lucky to have a big advantage like this. And as far as I know, they still want foreign tourists to wait under quarantine for 14 days or so. This means that they aren't going to be accepting spectators who's newly come from a different country. And only the Italian fans who are living in England are going to be able to go to the match and support their team.
With this huge advantage, I think England are way ahead already. But Italy are a really strong team. So I don't think that England will be able to defeat them in 90 minutes or even in 120 minutes. I think that we will see the penalty shoot-outs and England will be the winner side at the end.

By the way, is the race for 3rd place LIVE?
But I see from the google standings there is no Spain vs Denmark?

We are not having a third-place match. It was a regular event at the EUROs from 1960 until 1980. However, due to low TV ratings and no interest from fans, UEFA decided to cancel it.
I will agree with you, but I think Italy will win it during regular time. I am more impressed by Italy, their match against Belgium was really good and England didn't convince me yet.
England has the home advantage however, but my guess is 1-2 for Italy.
Throughout the appearance at EURO 2020 Italy was impressive with a good performance, but in the final I also have no doubt this will even be a victory for the Azzuri at home to England I think Roberto Mancini already knows what strategy to apply with England, this is not an easy opponent but with regular time everything can be smooth.England has the home advantage however, but my guess is 1-2 for Italy.

Honestly I think Italy takes it. Whether it's in reg time or extra time I don't know. They looked real good against Spain and don't feel the same about how England looked. They seem susceptible to a counter and Italy is real creative. Going to take a real concerted effort I think from the English side to get over on Italy.
Real Good?? No no not at all, Spain had full possession of the game of the game that night,more dangerous attacks than the Italians the,the Italians only has great defending that night despite the goal from Alvaro Morata.
They'll sure sit back, defend and counter attack the English side.
.Im going with Italy in the final. I think there is karma in this world because of the penalty against Denmark. Plus Italy are so much more motivated and are always giving there all. I think this will be an intresting final and might go in to extra time
Well,to me,I don't see Italy becoming victorious in that tough encounter.England have been a team I vouch for from the beginning of this tournament.There backline and Frontline is both solid and offensive.Lets not also forget they have the best backline so far.Therefore,I give England the win over Italy.There's gonna be two things involved on that day its either the English side wins and the trophy stays home,or the Italians wins and the Trophy goes Rome.
Time will surely tell in days to come.
Italians for this one.

We all saw the Denmark vs England game... And we've also all seen Italy games! I don't think England has a chance in this match! Attacking Italy is going to beat them! Even a home field won't save England from losing!
The Danes Midfielders couldn't win balls from the English side during the second half of the game,the got exhausted, really good pressure from the English side because they needed the win that bad.
They'll sure attack the Italians,it's left for the Italians to make use of their chances and Utilize it.

Very well,well said......I really do want the Italians to win this one,I think they're Favorite for this Euros.
A good defense on that day,and as well make good use of there Chance's.
The English side will definitely attack because they'll want to wrap things up in a jiffy.

It is hard to predict but based on the odds, England is a bit favorite than Italy. England with 2.6-2.7x and Italy with 2.9x-3.xx.
Both team were in easy group of stage but Italy was in harder bracket on the Play-offs than England. If I'm not mistaken, the Final will be held in Wembley which is a home for England so it will be an advantage. It will be also England's first major tournament Final after 55 years, it can be a big pressure for the team since the fans will be hoping so much to see England take the trophy.
Hard to predict who will be the champion, but if I look at the overall history of both team in all major tournament, I'll choose Italy.
I dont think England has a better defence then Italy they might have not conceded many goals in this tournament but Italy didnt concede a goal for 13 or more matches i think they conceded now on the Euros but for me they have an experienced defence
Good Attacking teams wins matches,while a good defense brings nd win you Trophies.
There's no doubt on this the best defending side wins the European Cup.
I'm place my bet on the Italians to Win again.

Thanks to all of you who contributed so far! It's a very interesting poll both in terms of results (so far, it looks everyone thinks/wants/hopes that Italy will win the Cup) and discussion.
The poll's open until Sunday afternoon so hopefully we'll reach at least 50 votes (the minimum I had in mind to place a bet).
64.3% for Italy is a lot!

Looking forward to this finals...

LOL.. the poll results really surprised me. Italy at 15 votes out of a total of 25. England and draw at 5 each. Naturally I would have expected more votes for England, since they are having better odds. Italy is mostly placed at +190 to +200 by sportsbooks (not much behind England though). I guess a lot of people are angry with England after the boorish performance from the English fans during the semi-final match against Denmark. I am thinking about making a bet in favor of draw after the first 90 minutes. IMO, the scores are likely to remain at level after regulation time.

Italy was playing a good defensive game against Spain and if you watched the match Spain was having the ball majority of the time and they failed to get inside the box and they tried many long range shots which all backfired and they wasted many opportunities. When it comes to England i thought it would be an easy game against Denmark but they took the time till the extra minute to score a goal.The game is between England attack and the Italian defense, if it goes to the shootout then i am picking Italy to win.
Im going with Italy in the final. I think there is karma in this world because of the penalty against Denmark. Plus Italy are so much more motivated and are always giving there all. I think this will be an intresting final and might go in to extra time
Well,to me,I don't see Italy becoming victorious in that tough encounter.England have been a team I vouch for from the beginning of this tournament.There backline and Frontline is both solid and offensive.Lets not also forget they have the best backline so far.Therefore,I give England the win over Italy.

on the other hand England has players very good and with great experience, the truth is that they have a very powerful attack, it could be said that it will be the best defense in the world against the best attack in Europe. I think that now the bets must be divided almost 50%, there are many followers and fans from Italy as well as from England, in my particular case I would like Italy to win.
If I was to compare each player against the opposite number on the other team. I'd probably have the majority of the English players in my team. They have some world class players or if not world class very close to that level. Harry Kane, Sterling, Sancho, Henderson, and Trent are all probably up there. Yet, they don't seem to click as well as they should. I'm not sure if its because of British media hyping them up, and then turning on them even for the slightest mistake, but that team should be running things. Italy have some good players no doubt, but I definitely think on a individual basis, England would win every day. However, this is a team game, and Italy has proven that they function brilliantly as a team, and that's what counts at the end of the day. England also have a history of collapsing under pressure which is why I mentioned that earlier. I think certain players are more susceptible than others e.g Sterling, Maguire, and Pickford.
I think Italy can win, the reason is simple, I think Italy has already achieved its style of play, that style they had in the 90s but with today's players, they also have a hunger for victory, on the other hand England has players very good and with great experience, the truth is that they have a very powerful attack, it could be said that it will be the best defense in the world against the best attack in Europe. I think that now the bets must be divided almost 50%, there are many followers and fans from Italy as well as from England, in my particular case I would like Italy to win.
I might be accused of being a bitter Welsh man here, but I do believe Italy will beat England. Italy haven't lost in how many games? Isn't it closing in on 30 games now? I think their defense is enough to hold the attacking options England have got, and I think Kane, and Sterling will feel the pressure on the night, which will only aid the Italians. I do think it'll be a close game, and I actually think there will only be a goal in it on the day. I'm predicting 1-0.
Honestly I think Italy takes it. Whether it's in reg time or extra time I don't know. They looked real good against Spain and don't feel the same about how England looked. They seem susceptible to a counter and Italy is real creative. Going to take a real concerted effort I think from the English side to get over on Italy.
I voted for Italy, I do not have too many reasons except that I really dislike when a match is decided by the decisions of the referees, the penalty kick that was given to England on overtime against Denmark was ridiculous, there was only a slight contact and it was of the kind that it is allowed all over the field and even after there was a review the decision was upheld, soccer is a contact sport so even if there was a mild contact it was not enough to justify the penalty kick being given to England, so for that reason alone I hope they lose against Italy.
We should just hope for a good match where the better team wins. This is not always the case in tournaments such as this. The technical data and statistics indicate that England should win, but I personally support Italy. And, as you pointed out, let's hope this isn't yet another case when the referee's mistake decides the winner.

I honestly wished Spain could reach the final, but they lost on penalties to Italy. For the final, I think England will win this title for 90 minute of regular time. Obviously I don't doubt Italy's strength because they look strong defensively and very dangerous on the counter-attack. Hopefully England will prove to us that they can beat Italy in the final. Even though these two teams will have to fight hard to reach the final, I'm sure they won't need more than 90 minute to decide who wins.
Although England looked stronger in the match with Denmark, I do not like it when in such important matches happen such absurdities as this penalty. And at the expense of the match between Italy and England, I think that England will not cope with the defense of Italy. England may not be able to score a single goal in the entire match. I expect Italy to win in the final, in regulation time or on penalties. Italy is in the final on the case and deserves to be the champion. Looking at the betting odds, England is slightly favored over Italy, but the prediction is undoubtedly open, even if playing in a stadium like Wembley full of English fans, where Italians should be less than 10,000, could be a determining factor.
Let's crowdsource the bet for the regular 90 minutes: what is going to be the end result after 90 minutes?
Your move!
Both teams played really well this tournament, it will be a close game. In my opinion it will go into over time, so a draw in the first 90 minutes. In over time England will then win. Their defence is so strong that it will be very hard for Italy to score. The only chance I see for Italy to win this is one is if England gets a red card. So far most people here think that England even wins in 90 minutes.

After Francis, Portugal, Germany, and other countries that were originally predicted to be the hopeful countries to enter the final, it turned out that the players who entered were Italy and England, which really knocked down the bets of many big gamblers.
So when I watch the match for Portugal defending trophy, the two will shoot each other on penalties again like when the two countries fought for the semi-finals yesterday.
so the stakes are that they will go into extra time with a draw and carry out the defensive style that is the hallmark of both nations. and decide on a penalty kick.

it seems that at the beginning of the vote people are more in favor of italy. well i voted for england, i think italy is a good team, and very strong in defence, but england is also a strong team and plays well in attack. for me england will win this game. even if the game reaches overtime, england will win
Well, instead of sharing our personal favorite, it seems England is the favorite for sports bookies at this moment.

And it seem right for good reasons. No doubt Italy has equal chances to win the game. But England will definitely have the benefit of the home ground and familiar weather.
If you look at the record of the meeting, the two teams have a record of almost balanced meetings and tend to be tight in their matches, however, in my opinion, Italy is superior when it comes to playing in major competitions such as the Euro or the World Cup when compared to the England national team, although England are more resilient because they have just conceded a goal in the semi-final after a clean sheet in five consecutive matches but in my opinion the victory against Denmark was only due to the sheer luck factor because it got a controversial penalty and if it can be said that Italy is more likely to come out as champion of the euro this year because it has an evenly distributed quality of players in every line, while England according to me, only benefited by the host factor.

I believe Italy will beat England 1-0
In the final it was quite tense but I will poll Italy for a win at EURO 2020.
There is no specific reason for this because for me both teams are great and will not doubt their game in the final.
But the reason for choosing Italy is because they have quite a different style of play and from their counter-attack I don't think the match will produce many goals but I predict this match will end with a narrow goal
Betting on italy with a double bet I think it's a good fit, but I will see another correction with bets can be changed before the game starts.

England certainly. I had a bet placed during the round of 16 that England to win the Euro 2020. However, Italy is still unbeaten for the last 35 matches I guess and that's a very good strength for them. It gives them hope, confidence to win over England although it’s in English kingdom.
Nevertheless, I will only place bet on both team score. Nothing else probably.

I hope Italy wins the match, no matter how long it lasts. I'm angry with how England's fans acted yesterday, especially the part with shining a laser to the eyes of the goalkeeper of Denmark's team. I think that such events should be a reason enough to at least replay the whole match and don't count the result of the yesterday's one. I also don't think it's fair that England's team gets to play in England! Isn't the home advantage for such cases obvious? Why not make a rule that EURO matches happen only in countries whose teams aren't playing in the match?
I'm also expecting a draw on the finals because both teams are willing to stall this one out until someone makes a small mistake.
Yep I agree with you, Italy has more big country opponents. They are able to play effectively. They don't have the ball but can score goals. I think in 90 minutes they will play 1-1 or 0-0 no more 1 gol every Tim. Even though England are playing at home, I have some doubts about their goalkeeper, in the appearance against Denmark several times he made mistakes.I was thinking something similar, not too many goals, probably the game will be stalled until the first mistake... but if that mistake happens earlier the game will open up and after that anything can happen!
I voted for Italy, I give them an advantage, in my opinion, they are a better team! I think they can take down the English boys on their home field... but will it be in regular time, or we will see Italians in penalties once again, we will see... I see "Draw" is leading, so I guess a draw is very possible in regular time!
Voted for Italy for a whole lot of reasons.
Italy showed better football compared to England since day 1 and, more importantly, a greater resilience. England had a too soft journey until yesterday: not even Germany was a big deal for them.
I think the Italians have all the means to dismantle the English battleship.
England's no Spain and we saw that only that kind of football can do harm to the Azzurri.
Therefore, that is my bet, Italy winning without reaching the extra times.

The final match is likely to be fierce because both teams have a balanced composition from goalkeeper to striker, and the last meeting in 2018 was Italy vs England, the score was a draw.
and hopefully the final of Euro 2020 Italy vs England ends in a draw so that we can see the match getting more exciting in extra time like in the previous match, and can see the last match of Euro 2020 with full satisfaction because in extra time both teams can prove who is great and become champions.
And I didn't choose Italy or England because both are good and the one who wins will be the best.

If i'd place a bet i'll go for Italy double chance or maybe Italy to lift the trophy, as much as I like both teams to win I have to go with Italy since they had the tougher route to the finals.

I think that we will see a draw after 90 minutes. But it will be a draw with goals. My guesses are 1-1 and 2-2. I really believe that we will watch an enjoyable game rather than a boring one. Both of these teams have deserved to be here.
To be honest, I'll be supporting England in this one. I like Italy also but I think that it is time for England to start winning something also.

At first I predicted that Spain would enter the final with England, apparently not, the spin lost on penalties with Italy 1-1 (4-2p), Denmark lost 2-1, England won the final at EURO 2020 this time.
There is one thing that can not be explained here Italy in the victory in the final this time, this is beyond expectations, a lot of people placed bets on the semi-finals falling, but now let's talk about the semi-final closing final that has already taken place.
OP, to be honest I am this time in the final EURO italy vs. England, my feet remain on the British side, I don't want to say the reason for that.

Which team will win between Italy and England? Anticipation's growing for the Euro 2020 final that will be held on Sunday at Wembley, London UK.
These are the two teams indicated by bettors as the big favorites to win the European Championship since France was eliminated.
Italy, after having won all three matches in its group, struggled in the round of 16 against Austria, while its success against Belgium was a bit clearer. In the semifinals, against Spain, it was an authentic battle that was resolved with penalties.
England, on the other hand, against Denmark, got the only goal of the entire competition. The Southgate's boys suffered a bit too much in 120' but then found a second goal with the usual HurryKane.
Looking at the betting odds, England is slightly favored over Italy, but the prediction is undoubtedly open, even if playing in a stadium like Wembley full of English fans, where Italians should be less than 10,000, could be a determining factor.
