Italy didn't play at the previous World Cup, so it would be a disaster to miss the European Championship too. They collected only four points from the first three matches. Right now, Italy are three points behind Ukraine, which holds the second position on the table. Italy have a reserve option in the Nations League playoff, but Luciano Spalletti certainly doesn't want to risk in those matches. On Saturday, Italy played 1-1 on the road against North Macedonia. Guests didn't play well in that game. Italy have to improve for the game against Ukraine.
Ukraine didn't play at the World Cup too. For them, it will be important to qualify for the European Championship. Still, that seemed unlikely from a draw when it was clear that they have to be better than England or Italy. Ukraine have to avoid defeat on Tuesday night to stay with realistic chances. Ukraine are without a loss in the last four matches. In the previous game, they played 1-1 in Wroclaw against England. Gareth Southgate's team was much better, but Ukraine played solid and avoided defeat.
Italy vs Ukraine pick: Both teams to score - yes
Italy are scoring goals regularly. They scored at least one goal in every one of the last five matches. On the other hand, Ukraine scored at least one goal in every one of the last four games. Both teams to score - yes should be the right bet for this match.

Italy team news
Roberto Mancini was the head coach of Italy in the last five years. Still, last month, he was replaced by Luciano Spalletti. In his debut in the national team, Italy played 1-1 against North Macedonia.
After the game, Spalletti said that conditions of the field mostly influenced his team to have problems securing a win. The pitch was bad, but that can't be the only reason.

Ukraine team news
After a draw against England, Ukraine's head coach Serhiy Rebrov was satisfied, mostly with a performance in defense.
He said, "We had a certain plan, but England destroyed it. We should have attacked more, but it was very difficult to get out of defense. However, football is a result. Yes, England had the initiative, but how many chances did they create? I think we played very useful defense, I thanked the boys for that. I said before the match that it is very important to enjoy playing in defense. They did it today."
