Belgium has definitely lost some of its shine, and the team's form has also declined. They have only managed to achieve one victory in their last six matches, which was at home with a 3-1 win over the underdog Israel. The Belgium squad is also undergoing serious renovation, with key players De Ketelaere, Jeremy Doku, Malik Fofana, and Joachim Saïs all currently injured.
Unlike Belgium, Italy has made a good impression with their performance in the Nations League. They have three wins and one draw, with the draw being at home against Belgium with a 2-2 result. However, the match could have gone a completely different way, as Italy quickly took a 2-0 lead but then ended up with 10 men on the field and allowed the equalizer. Italy also won 3-1 against France as guests, with over 2.5 goals and goals in both nets in all of Italy's matches so far in the group.
Prediction: both teams to score, X2 double chanceBelgium is not in a good period and the overall condition and form of the team are not at their best. Italy, on the other hand, has impressed with their performances in the group so far and looks capable of at least not losing again, as well as making another match with goals in both nets.
