Portugal U21 vs Italy U21 Predictions
- Italy U21s have had a player sent off in their last three matches.
- Portugal U21s have won their last ten games
Discipline to cost Italy again
Italy have a storied history in the U21 European Champions as they are five time winners of the tournament, tied with Spain for the most of any team.
Portugal on the other hand have never won this competition, as their best result has been runners up twice in 1994 and 2015.
Portugal qualified from a difficult group containing England, Switzerland and Croatia, taking nine points from a possible nine. They have won their last ten games in all competitions.
Italy had a rockier road through to the knockout stages, with a lack of discipline a huge obstacle as they had a man sent off in all three group games. The Azzuri managed to progress despite this, taking five points from their three games against Spain, Czech Republic and Slovakia.
With the clear discipline issues in the Italian squad and the fact that the Portuguese progressed comfortably in a more difficult group, they can see off the Azzuri here.
Portugal can put themselves on the path to a first U21 European Championship, with 2-1 the suggested score line.
