Northern Ireland close out their World Cup qualifiers on TV with a glamour clash with Italy at Windsor Park on Monday night.
Ian Baraclough’s men are out of the running for qualification or a play-off place, but will be determined to give a good account of themselves in their final outing of the campaign.
They had to rely on an own goal to defeat Lithuania in their other match of this current international break, and will know they need to step it up against the Euro 2020 champions.
Despite a successful year for Italian football, they have struggled in their relatively kind qualifying group. They remain top of Group C, but are level on points with Switzerland, who play Bulgaria next.
The Italians must win here, or they run the very real risk of falling into the play-offs if Switzerland topple Bulgaria.

Our prediction: Northern Ireland v Italy
Italy still need a result here, and that could make all the difference. In a dead rubber, stranger things have happened than Northern Ireland holding out for large spells of the match, even until the end, but not while Italy need a commanding win.
Goal difference could be crucial in the battle between Italy and Switzerland. The former boasts a two-goal superiority in the goal difference stakes, but that could evaporate should Switzerland rack up a hefty win.
This all adds up to Italy not only needing three points, but needing goals. And that spells doom for Northern Ireland.
Our prediction: Northern Ireland 0-3 Italy (11/2 at bet365).
