Team News
- Luciano Spalletti, who’ll oversee his final game as Italy boss, is expected to continue with a three-man backline even after their 3-0 loss to Norway.
- Diego Coppola is set to drop out of the side after struggling at the back against Norway.
- Davide Frattesi may also come into the side for the Azzurri.
Prediction
- Italy were torn apart by Norway on Friday night as they made the worst possible start to their World Cup qualifying campaign. The Azzurri have now failed to win their last four, losing three times.
- Moldova haven’t exactly fared much better having lost 3-2 at home to Estonia last time out. They have lost their opening two World Cup qualification matches.
- Even after their shocking showing against Norway, Italy are expected to make home advantage count on Monday night as Luciano Spalletti’s bows out on a high.
