Both teams needed a win to secure qualification as both teams have fallen victim to the World Cup Cinderella story of Costa Rica. Italy and Uruguay have rather underperformed and will look to show case there talents.

Italy goes into the game slight favourites at 9/5 ahead of Uruguay at 7/4. The odds reflect just how tight this game could be. A draw would be enough for the Azzuri to qualify due to their superior goal difference with the tempting odds of 23/10.

In this World Cup attacking flair has triumphed I’m more inclined to lean towards a Uruguay victory in my Italy v Uruguay betting tips. It’s a win or the plane home for La Celeste.  History isn’t on Uruguay’s side they were beaten by Italy at the 2013 Confederations Cup. They have faced each other twice at the World Cup and both times Uruguay have failed to score.

Italy have only lost 3 of their previous 19 World Cup games against South American opposition. Under Prandelli Italy no longer are a team which sit back and rely on their defensive expertise to grind out wins.  Their usual tactics 3-5-2 give them balance with the experienced midfield with Pirlo acting as a deep lying playmaker the energy and attacking threat of Marchesio make Italy dangerous down the middle but are more vulnerable defensively. A half fit Luis Suarez will find space in-between the back three.

Edison Cavani has had a hand in Uruguay’s last five goals and his contribution to the team is invaluable so he will relish playing with Suarez once again and he is our first scorer for our Uruguay v Italy betting tips. Daniele Di Rossi has completed over 200 passes so far the highest of the tournament and 100% accuracy against England, he is missing for the game and will be a massive blow.

This could be a low scoring affair so another prediction is for under 2.5 goals to be scored in the match and finally a correct score betting tip for Uruguay v Italy is Uruguay to win 1-0 at 15/2.
