With one of the most equal groups, where after the first games all 4 teams have 1 point, Italy the 4 time World Cup winner and the outsider New Zealand.
These two teams have met only ones before, in 10.06.2009 where Italy wins in a goal fiasco that has ended 4:3. To view the game click here
The game was quite hard for the Italians since they were catching up 3 times during the game. Gilardino and Iaquinta both scored 2 goals each, and brought the victory to Italy. The current World Cup champion would have to win here, if they wanna keep alive their chances for qualifying.
The last victory Italy had was on 18.11.2009 against Sweden with the minimal 1:0.
Meanwhile New Zealand will try to impress again, after doing the impossible in the first game, tying Slovakia 1:1 in the last minute of the match.
What to expect from this game?
A lot of attacks from Italy, looking for that first goal. Meanwhile New Zealand will take the game in their half, hoping on counter attacks. A draw here for them will be like a victory.
Good bets to place?
Italy – wins @ 1.66 (Bet365.com): Based on the more quality team, and their tradition to qualify out of the groups, I think Italy will get the win here, although it might come not as easy as the odds suggest.
