The Italy national team, the reigning champions of the European Nations Championship, will kick off the round of 16 of the tournament by facing Switzerland next Saturday at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.
Italy aims to secure a victory and advance past Switzerland after an unconvincing group stage performance. They started with a win against Albania (2-1), then lost to Spain (0-1), and finally drew dramatically with Croatia (1-1).
Italy finished second in Group B with 4 points, behind the top-performing Spain, which secured a perfect score. However, Italy was fortunate enough to move to an easier path in the tournament, avoiding the routes of Spain, Germany, Portugal, and France.
On the other hand, Switzerland qualified for the round of 16 as the runner-up of Group A with 5 points, having won against Hungary (3-1) and drawn with both Germany and Scotland (1-1).
The winner of the Italy vs. Switzerland match will face the winner of the England vs. Slovakia match in the quarter-finals of Euro 2024.
