Euro 2024 match schedule today (June 29): Round of 16 begins

The match between Switzerland and Italy will open the round of 16 at Euro 2024.

Switzerland are having a pretty impressive performance at Euro 2024. In the final match against Germany, they almost won, if not for the excellence of goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and the late goal of Niclas Fullkrug. Switzerland is even considered to be able to make a surprise in the knockout stage of the tournament.

On the contrary, Italy, although reaching the round of 16 in second place in Group B, can hardly be said to have had a good performance. The defending champions have 4 points after 3 matches, scoring 3 goals and conceding 3. In particular, Italy is facing a huge problem in attack, when Scamacca has not shown himself in a major tournament, and Chiesa is no longer himself after a ligament injury.

In this context, it will be very difficult to expect Italy to score against a disciplined and tight team like Switzerland. However, Italy has the spirit of a champion, so the match will be quite balanced.

Next, the Euro 2024 round of 16 continues to witness an exciting confrontation between host Germany and Denmark.

Germany have only kept one clean sheet, but their defence is still considered one of the best in the tournament. Denmark, for their part, have struggled to score goals at Euro 2024, with just two goals scored in the entire tournament so far, thanks to Eriksen against Slovenia and Hjulmand against England. Meanwhile, Hojlund - a striker who plays for Manchester United - has not featured much in the tournament.

However, with overall strength and home field advantage, Germany is still rated higher. It is very difficult for Denmark to make a difference against the Euro 2024 host team./.
