Israel vs Italy: Prediction
Italy are strong favourites in this game, though they lost their last 2 games. They have won only 2 of their last 5 games, and have kept clean sheets in the 2 games. However they are way better than their host.
Israel are on a very poor form, having seen victory a year ago. They winless in their last 5 game with a draw and 4 defeats. They have conceded at least 2 goals in their last 4 games. Furthermore, they have conceded a total of 10 goals in their last 4 games. They will need a miracle to overcome the Italians in this fixture considering their poor form.
I predict a win for the visitors and I expect a clean sheet from them
