World Cup - Qualification Europe
Israel convincingly defeated Moldova 4-0 away on Friday. Thus, they have three wins and one loss so far in the qualifiers, with the loss coming from Norway 2-4 at home. All four of the team's matches so far have had over 2.5 goals. Another away match awaits Israel, who exactly a year ago lost both of their matches against Italy in the Nations League 1-2 and 1-4.
Gattuso starts with an expected win at the helmGennaro Gattuso debuted with a decisive 5-0 win at home against Estonia this Friday. At halftime, the score was 0-0, but there were rumors that he was giving pep talks during the break, which clearly paid off. Everyone in the team says they are extremely motivated this time for Italy not to miss the World Cup again, so they need a new victory now after starting the qualifiers with a loss to Norway.
Prediction: victory for Italy and over 1.5 goalsIsrael is doing well against the underdogs in the group, but it seems they will once again be brought down to earth against one of the favorites. Even if it doesn't come easy, I expect another victory for Italy against Israel on the road to the World Cup.
