A golden opportunity to seize top spot for Italy awaits
Liechtenstein
When the World Cup groups were announced, the general feeling was that some teams would struggle. Liechtenstein were definitely amongst those sides. The minnows so far have lost all three of their World Cup qualifying matches, including a humiliating 8-0 drubbing by Spain. Although they tried to stage a comeback against Israel in their most recent tie, it was in vain as they fell to a 2-1 defeat. As such, they sit bottom of their group and will be taking on an opponent who will be eager to make amends after nearly throwing away all three points against Macedonia.
Italy
Two key absentees for the Azzurri will be Juventus duo Claudio Marchisio and Andrea Barzagli. The veteran defender suffered a dislocated shoulder during La Vecchia Signora's 2-1 win over Chievo earlier this month, whilst experienced midfielder Marchisio is still struggling to recover after a ACL tear this past spring. Nonetheless, they are viewed as the heavy favorites to come out on top in this one. Out of their past five games, Liechtenstein have scored just once. And although Giampiero Ventura raised a few eyebrows by opting to leave out in-form striker Mario Balotelli, Italy nonetheless have more than enough star quality to earn all three points here to keep pace with Spain in the race for top spot in their group.
