ITALY vs ROMANIA (EURO 2008)

<1.55> <3.30> <5.50>

i think italy will win this one as they are definitely a better team technically, as compared to romania. they have to win as well, having endured a terrible start against holland. also, they'll be looking to get out of the blocks quick, so back them at halftime.

- Eddy's prediction: $10 on italy @ 1.55 = $15.50
$5 on italy WIN at HT @ 2.10 = $10.50

World Champions Italy will look to get their Euro 08 campaign back on track with a win over Romania. They desperately need it as they are bottom with 0 points. A loss would mean that they are preliminarily eliminated, and a draw would mean they would be joint-bottom with France because I think Holland will win. So, Italy will go for this. Donadoni has announced that Del Piero, who's been in sterling form and caused many problems for the Holland defence when subbed on, will start. An attack with Toni as the focal point and Del Piero and Di Natale as wing forwards look great, and I think that Italy will win this one. Romania will look to defend and counter, but I think the superb passing of Pirlo will be able to unlock their defence.

- Roland's prediction: $5 on Italy @ 1.55 = $7.75
