Italy's upcoming fixture against Switzerland will provide an indication of how well the defending champions are prepared for the playoffs. While Italy did not exhibit their best performance during the group stage, they managed to advance by scoring an important goal in stoppage time, which enabled them to secure a place in the next round. Switzerland, on the other hand, displayed a respectable performance throughout the group phase. However, can they overcome the reigning European champions? 
In my view, the Italian squad should emerge victorious.

Switzerland played a solid game and achieved victory. It appears that the curse of the previous tournament winners continues.
