World Cup 2014 – Group D : Italy vs Uruguay

After their surprising defeat against Costa Rica (1-3), Uruguay showed a completely different attitude in beating England, thanks to a brace of goals by Suarez. Against Italy, who missed out on a great opportunity to make it into the last 16 by losing to the “Ticos” (0-1), the Celestes know they must win to reach the knockout stage.

With the experience of their senior players, will the “Squadra Azzurra” manage to come away with at least a point?

The key points of the match

Both teams battled to a draw in the recent Confederations Cup (2-2).

Italy need a draw to qualify and will sit back and wait for the Celestes, who will naturally leave themselves vulnerable to the Squadra Azzurra’s counter attacks.

Uruguay have only won one of their last 5 World Cup matches.

The Italians have only lost 2 of their last 15 matches in a World Cup tournament!
