Italy is in a situation where, after winning the European title, it is now fighting in a barrage that will be very difficult to qualify for the World Cup. The winner of this duel will go to the winner Portugal-Turkey, so we will surely have interesting qualifications. Italy was second in the group where Switzerland won first place and will remain in Italy because they were better in both duels with the Swiss and had a chance to leave the first position but failed to beat Ireland in Belfast. The Italians have prepared a "hot" field for the Macedonians because the match will be played in Palermo, Sicily. Mancini will play the strongest possible team, Chiesa is still injured, Meret and Spinazzola as well, Bonucci has joined the team but will probably not play. The attack is reserved for Immobile, Insigne and Berardi, and I expect the most from captain Sassuolo tomorrow because he is playing in fantastic form. Italy will certainly want to go to Skopje with the best possible results and I expect a lot of pressure on the goal of the Macedonians from the beginning of the game. Macedonia is coming in the hope that they will be able to win a favourable result, but it will be very difficult because they are coming without two very important midfielders. Elmas, the best player in Macedonia, and Kostadinov are serving a suspension due to yellow cards and this is a big blow for the Macedonians. The guests managed to win second place in the group with Germany, Iceland, Armenia, Liechtenstein and Romania, and that is a great success for this small country, but in the last three games they played against stronger teams, they lost by two or more goals. I don't think this will be an easy game for Italians but minding their quality in the roster and the good form of their main players I think Italy is able to win 2-0 or 3-0 in this game. Macedonians miss their best player and without him i don't think they can cope with Italy at the moment.

My prediction;

Outcome: Italy to win -1.5

Goals: over 2.5

意大利在赢得欧洲冠军后，现在将会迎来世界杯资格的硬仗。这场比赛的获胜者将面对葡萄牙 - 土耳其之间的胜者。意大利在瑞士获得第一名的小组中排名第二，他们在与瑞士的两场比赛中都表现得更好，并且有机会拿到第一名，但未能在贝尔法斯特击败爱尔兰。意大利人为马其顿人准备了一个艰难的场地，因为这场比赛将在西西里岛的巴勒莫举行。曼奇尼将出战最强球队，基耶萨仍在受伤，梅雷特和斯皮纳佐拉也是，博努奇加入了球队但可能不会上场。进攻依然是因莫比莱、因西涅和贝拉尔迪的，我对萨索洛的队长期待最大，因为他的状态非常好。意大利肯定会想要想以最好的成绩去斯科普里，从比赛一开始，马其顿就会受到很大的压力。马其顿希望他们能够赢得一个有利的结果，但这将非常困难，因为缺少了两名非常重要的中场球员。马其顿最好的球员埃尔马斯和科斯塔迪诺夫因黄牌被停赛，这对马其顿人来说是一个很大的打击。他们与德国、冰岛、亚美尼亚、列支敦士登和罗马尼亚的小组中排名第二，这对这个小国来说是一个巨大的成功，但在最近三场比赛中，他们与实力更强的球队交手，都输了两场或两场以上。我不认为这对意大利人来说将是一场轻松的比赛，但考虑到他们在阵容中的实力以及他们主要球员的良好状态，我认为意大利能够在这场比赛中以 2-0 或 3-0 获胜。马其顿缺少了他们最好的球员，我认为他们目前无法应对意大利。

预测：意大利让球胜+平
