After delivering a winning single on Saturday, SlipsTips shares a selection ahead of Luxembourg's friendly with Italy on Wednesday night.
Luxembourg vs Italy (Wednesday, 19:45)
Italy will be looking to pick up a morale-boosting victory when they travel to Luxembourg for a friendly fixture on Wednesday night.
Inconceivably, the Italians failed to qualify for a third successive World Cup and will have to settle for a watching brief again this summer.
As for Luxembourg, they have never managed to make it to the world’s biggest stage, following another unsuccessful attempt during their recent qualifying campaign.
In fact, the Red Lions were left rooted to the bottom of their qualifying group after losing all six of their matches.
That does not bode well ahead of a visit from an Italian side who could be wounded and feel they have a point to prove.
Following Gennaro Gattuso’s departure in April, in the wake of Italy's failed qualifying campaign, Silvio Baldini finds himself in interim charge.
The Italians are short-priced 1/2 shots with bet365 to win the game, but backing them to score at least two goals looks the more attractive option at 4/5 with the same firm.
Despite failing to book their place at the summer showpiece, the Azzurri still managed to win seven of their 10 matches across the entirety of their qualifying campaign.
Even more notable is the volume of goals they scored, with Italy racking up multiple strikes in each of those seven triumphs.
With that in mind, the Italians look well placed to help themselves to at least a couple of goals against international minnows Luxembourg this midweek.
The hosts conceded two goals or more in four of their six World Cup qualifiers, including a 3-1 defeat to Northern Ireland at the Stade de Luxembourg.
So, with all things considered, the visitors look good value to score two goals or more during this contest at 4/5 with Bet365.
