The strength of the two teams is quite different, and Italy lost to Norway 0:3 in the first away game. The team won three times against Moldova, including the European confrontation in the 2004-2005 season, with one goal at home and away. This game was 1.02, 11 and 25, and Italy scored -2.75 to the low and medium values. The team lost a crushing defeat in the first game, which instead reduced the popularity of the game. Facing the bottom team, it was optimistic about Italy's big victory and rebound.
