Italy: Buffon; Abate, Bonucci, Chiellini, De Sciglio; De Rossi, Pirlo, Verratti; Candreva, Marchisio; Balotelli
Luxembourg: Moris; Jans, Schnell, Chanot, Janisch; Philipps; Alves da Mota, Gerson, Mutsch, Bensi; Joachim
This is Italys final game before the WC, and playing at home in Perugia (always renowned for great atmosphere when they play there), I believe they will want to give them a spanking. Its a strong side, but still an element of experiment with both Pirlo & Verratti playing (something completely new) in a 4 - 5 - 1 formation.
Dont forget tho, a spanking for Italy is not 5 - 0 or 6 - 0, but more 3 or 4 - 0 (absolute tops). My prediction is 3- 0. Balotelli, De Rossi & Pirlo.
Yeah they were awful vs Ireland ...need to get there act together, so do germany ...They were soo bad vs cameroon for the first 65minutes the other night...could not string 3 passes together, Until podolski came on and give them a bit of bite and kick up the erse

No win in 7 matches for the Italians now. Although historically the Italians tend to do badly in pre-tournament friendlies and then play well in the tournament.

I thought 1/20 was a great price, so added it into my bet. 5% bonus to my winnings I thought.....It was Luxembourg FFS....thankfully England didnt win else it would have been a killer
