Italy travel to the A. Le Coq Arena<\/strong> to take on Estonia in a key battle in Group I as both nations battle for World Cup qualification. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The match, scheduled for a 19:45 kick off, will be the ninth meeting between the two nations and is one that Italy will be desperate to win after falling six points behind Norway at the top of their qualifying group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best bets and predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Italy come into this game as heavy favourites and this should be a game that they are winning, despite being away from home. We’re confident that Gennaro Gattuso’s side will come out on top but we’re delving into the handicap market to add some value to the selection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Italy -3<\/strong><\/td>\n29\/20 @ BetMGM<\/a>
(40.8%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nItaly desperately need a victory in this encounter as they currently sit in second place in Group I and sit six points behind Norway, albeit with a game in hand. Italy have scored 15 goals in their last five games, scoring three or more goals against Germany, Israel and, opponents this weekend, Estonia. With so much on the line for Italy, we’re predicting that they will pick up a comfortable win and put the pressure on Norway at the top of the group.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Correct Score – Italy 4-0<\/strong><\/td>\n7\/1 @ Bet365<\/a>
(12.5%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nAs mentioned above, Italy are in a rich vein of goalscoring form and have extra motivation to win this tie and close the gap at the top of Group I. Estonia have conceded 11 goals in their last five games and scored just four, with three of those coming in a win over minnows, Moldova. This boosted price from Bet365 represents real value in a match that Italy will want to stamp their authority on.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n
