The Moldova national football team will play with the Italy national football team in their World Cup qualifier. Stadionul Zimbru will witness this entertaining game between these two teams.
The hosts are going to be under pressure due to their series of poor performances in the ongoing World Cup qualifying run. In six matches, the Moldova national football team have lost five of them and only one of their fixtures ended in a draw. With a mediocre attack rate and poor defence, they are likely to suffer yet again.
The Italy national football team are looking in good touch and will be keen to continue their positive run of form. Despite being away from home, Gli Azzurri will be feeling confident for their upcoming game. In their current run of the World Cup qualifiers, they have won five matches of their six games.
The 27-year-old will have a big responsibility on his shoulders. From controlling the ball in the midfield to helping his side in the attacking front, Mihail Caimacov will play an important part. He must step up his game so that he can help his side by scoring a goal or two.
Mateo Retegui is going to be a constant threat to the opponent’s defence. He looks in good touch and will be one of the main men in the attacking front for the Italy national football team. In six 2026 World Cup qualifying games, Retegui has scored five goals and also has four assists to his name.
Moldova predicted lineup (5-3-2)
Celeadnic (GK); Platica, Craciun, Baboglo, Gherasimencov, Reabciuk; Caimacov, Rata, Bogaciuc; Perciun, Postolachi.
Italy predicted lineup (3-5-2)
Donnarumma (GK); Di Lorenzo, Mancini, Calafiori; Cambiaso, Barella, Locatelli, Tonali, Dimarco; Esposito, Retegui.
