Across the ESB Volta (2x3 min.), this fixture carries extra weight.

If you’re backing this one, here’s the no-bull take.
Portugal (dan_dragonio) at 14.72 to win feels a tad skinny given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the ESB Volta (2x3 min.) this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest they’re riding luck — stats nerds would steer clear.
Italy (kirman)’s 1.07 line intrigues, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
The wise guys’ll likely target the Draw 8.19 — these big games often play out tight, and pressure can kill attacking flow.
