Now entering its fourth edition, the UEFA Nations League remains an essential platform for European national teams to engage in meaningful competition, effectively replacing insignificant friendlies. This tournament structure strategically categorizes teams into competitions based on their performance rankings, with the added thrill of promotion and relegation dynamics.

Belgium, led by head coach Domenico Tedesco, have struggled during their League A campaign. The team has won just one of four Nations League matches so far, scoring four goals and conceding five. Their recent 2-2 draw against Italy in Rome kept their hopes alive, but they now sit third in Group A2 and need a win to avoid possible relegation.

Italy, led by manager Luciano Spalletti, have been in impressive form during their Nations League campaign. The Azzurri have won three and drawn one of their four games, scoring nine goals and conceding just three. Their recent 4-1 win over Israel consolidated their position in Group A2 and they are now on the brink of qualifying for the knockout stages.
