Command Analysis

Switzerland

Switzerland were solid at Euro 2020 earlier this year. They reached the quarterfinals of the tournament. In the World Cup qualifying games, the Swiss have also been successful so far: they have six points after two rounds and occupy second place in the table. Italy are in first place with 10 points, but Switzerland have two games in hand. Northern Ireland are third with four points, and they are the direct competitors of the Swiss for a direct ticket to Qatar. In the first match under the leadership of Murat Yakin, Switzerland beat Greece 2:1 on September 1.

Italy

Italy brilliantly performed at Euro 2020 and won the gold medals. Roberto Mancini's team is on an unbeaten streak in the World Cup qualification. They won three games, defeating Northern Ireland (2:0), Bulgaria (2:0), and Lithuania (2:0). However, in the last round, Squadra Azzurra unexpectedly lost points and drew with Bulgaria (1:1). But a draw still allowed the Italians to repeat the world record: 35 games without losing.
