Italy will resume campaign in the UEFA Euro 2024 Qualifiers by hosting Malta. The Italy vs Malta, UEFA Euro 2024 Qualifiers match will be played at Stadio San Nicola, Bari, Italy. The Azzurris are coming into this fixture after a 2-1 win over their last opponents Ukraine back in September. They are currently in second place in Group C, behind England. Italy has played four games, winning two, losing one, and drawing the other two. They defeated Ukraine 2-1 in their most recent encounter to come out on top. Davide Frattesi was the Italian player who scored two goals in the first half. Even though Ukraine's Andriy Yarmolenko pulled one back but it wasn't enough to win to steal a point. Malta has not quite had the tournament they had hoped for, having lost all five of their Group C games thus far. Their most recent setback was in a match against North Macedonia, who won 2-0. Malta will try to shock the Italians in the group to further aggravate their miserable odds of making it to the UEFA Euro 2024.Sandro Tonali and Nicolo Zaniolo Leave Italy Squad Amid Police Investigation Over Illegal Betting
Italy are set to miss Nicolo Zanilo and Sandro Tonali, who are under police investigation for alleged betting. However, Luciano Spalletti is looking to deploy Moise Kean, Giacomo Raspadori and Domenico Berardi as the attacking options. Gianluigi Donnarumma is set to be the custodian for this upcoming fixture. Gianluca Mancini will lead the defence line. Nicolo Barella's presence in the midfield is an added advantage to the team.
Malta, however, are lacking some important players in the squad due to injury or suspension, but they still have some options left for the line-up. Malta will look up to Zach Muscat, Bjorn Kristensen and Kyrian Nwoko to lead the team and get a positive result out of this fixture.
