Italy played well against Finland earlier in the ongoing international break as they registered a comfortable 2-0 victory. They will now to need to play their brand of football in games to come.
Gli Azzurri know Liechtenstein won’t be that hard a game and they will just need to play positive football to earn three points and be on a safer side registering two wins out of two so far in qualifying.
Italy next play Greece in June in the European qualifiers.
On the other hand, Liechtenstein lost to Greece earlier in the ongoing international break. They will need to play improved football in games to come.
Liechtenstein know four time world champions Italy are an extremely tough side and they need to be at their best to compete. They will need to give their all and hope for the best.
Gli Azzurri have a good record against Liechtenstein and they will look to continue the good work.
