Italy vs Netherlands, UNL

Italy and Netherland will both be looking to out their disappointing goalless draws behind them when they lock horns in the UEFA Nations League this Wednesday at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo.

ITALY

Italy are holding onto the lead in a very tight Nations League Group A1 by the skins of their teeth after picking up a win and a couple of draws in their 3 matches. The two draws came at home to Bosnia and at Poland at the weekend in a game they dominated for the most part, created more chances but were just not clinical enough to get the win.

Putting that aside, Italy’s overall performances have been quite impressive. They are unbeaten in their last 17 games, stretching back to September 2018. They are even more devastating when playing on home soil where they have won six of their last seven games.

They beat Netherlands 1-0 in Amsterdam in the reverse fixture in September last year with Nicolo Barella scoring the only goal at the stroke of halftime and Mancini will be looking for a similar outcome to shore their lead at the top of the group.

NETHERLANDS

Coach Frank De Boer replaced Ronald Koeman has had a less than impressive start in the job. He is still searching for his first win after kicking off with a 1-0 home loss to Mexico in an international friendly and then followed that up with a stinker in Zenica in their third group game as Bosnia and Herzegovina completely neutralized his side to hold out for a goalless draw at the weekend.

There is genuine concern growing among the Dutch faithful. They are now winless in their last 3 matches and even more worryingly, failed to score in any of these matches. For a team that is traditionally famed for its attacking brand of football and with the wealth of talent they have in the current squad, this is quite jaw-dropping.

Luckily for them, they are still second in the group, just one point behind Italy in the group. This is, therefore, a huge match for them with the outcome having major repercussions in the trajectory of the standings in the group.
