In the second round of Group D of the U21 Euro Cup, Switzerland U21 and Italy U21 had a fierce battle. Switzerland won the last round of the U21 UEFA Europa League with three points, while Italy lost due to a referee's error. In this match, Italy will do their best to turn the situation around. Given that Switzerland U21's offense is strong and their defense is weak, with a total of three or more goals in their last five matches, this match is expected to surpass the median of 2.5 goals.

Looking back at Switzerland U21's last match against Norway U21, the team conceded a goal after the first 19 minutes, but fortunately midfielder Imery performed bravely, scoring a goal and assisting, helping the team turn around and win 2-1. In fact, the Swiss team's recent performance has been fluctuating, including warm-up matches, the last six matches achieved 3 wins and 3 losses, of which three wins were 2-1, while the two defeats were 2-3 losses, which shows that the Swiss team's style of play is very open, and it is expected that this time against the Italy U21 will be bold in attacking as well.
Meanwhile, Italy U21 lost 1-2 in the last match against France U21 after a shot hit the white line of the goal in extra time, but the referee thought the ball did not go into the net. After the match, the Italian team was furious, and will definitely fight for the victory with more vigor. Italy U21 has strong players such as midfielder Sindo Donnelly and wing forward Werfeltkan Lotto. In the last game, they had 16 shots on goal, far more than the 6 shots of France, so the overall attacking momentum is strong, and they are expected to produce a big result.
