Euro 2024: Chris Sutton predicts Italy vs Switzerland, Germany vs Denmark

Former England Striker, Chris Sutton has predicted the result of Italy’s Euro 2024 Round of 16 clash with Switzerland.

The match will be played in Berlin on Saturday. He also backed Germany to ease past Denmark in the second 2024 Round-of-16 clash.

The former Chelsea man is, however, expecting a tough contest between Italy and Switzerland as they battle for a place in the quarterfinals.

Sutton wrote in his column for the BBC, “Switzerland ended up drawing with Germany in their final group game, but they were ahead for a long time, and it looked like they would top Group A.

“I am going to go with Italy. They are the holders, and they found a way to get the result they needed against Croatia in their last match in Group B.

He predicted a 1-0 win for the holders, adding, “I just have a feeling Italy will do the same here, and find a way to win, although it is going to be very close.”

Speaking about Germany against Denmark, he said, “I am still backing the hosts to get through this one, though, because they have got enough attacking firepower to get past the Danes’ defence.”
