Portugal Women vs Italy Women Predictions

Will Portugal Sink or Swim in Their Must-Win Clash with Italy?

• Portugal’s Leaky Defence: In their last six games, Portugal have conceded 25 goals, averaging over four per game — a defensive crisis by any measure.
• Italy’s Growing Confidence: La Azzurre are now unbeaten in four and have kept three clean sheets in that stretch, showing signs of a solid backline.
• Goal Drought for Portugal: The Navigators haven’t scored in their last four outings, which makes any comeback bid here feel more fantasy than possibility.

Best Bet for Portugal Women vs Italy Women

Monday’s Group B encounter at Women’s Euro 2025 could prove decisive for Portugal Women as they face Italy Women in Geneva. After a demoralising start against Spain, the Portuguese find themselves on the brink. It’s not a pleasant place to be—sitting bottom of the group, no points, no goals, and five already conceded. If they lose this one, and Spain do the expected against Belgium, they’re done. The dream dies early.

Italy, on the other hand, kicked off their tournament in far more composed fashion. A narrow 1-0 win over Belgium courtesy of a thunderbolt from Arianna Caruso gave them the perfect springboard. It wasn’t flashy, but it was disciplined, effective and, frankly, exactly the kind of start they needed. Now, sitting level with Spain on three points, Italy are in the driver’s seat and can book a quarter-final ticket with a second successive win.

For Portugal, the mission is not just to get a result—it’s to restore pride. But based on recent showings, that’s easier said than done. They’ve now lost five of their last six, conceding three or more in all those defeats. Goals have dried up too—four straight games without scoring. This is not a blip; it’s a nosedive.

Best Bet: Italy to Win

At BettingTips4You, we believe in clarity and conviction. That’s why we never bombard you with multiple suggestions. Just one solid, high-confidence tip per match — and for this one, it’s Italy to win.

Let’s not pretend Portugal were unlucky against Spain. They were torn apart. Two down inside seven minutes, four conceded before the break. Yes, they held on better in the second half, but the damage was long done. It’s hard to ignore how fragile they looked at the back and how utterly blunt they were in attack.

Now they face an Italian side that seems to have rediscovered some balance and structure. La Azzurre have picked up three wins in their last four, and they’ve only let in one goal across those matches. It’s not swashbuckling stuff, but it’s enough to get the job done—especially against a team as low on confidence as Portugal.

Cristiana Girelli remains Italy’s key threat. She didn’t get on the scoresheet last time, but with her experience and goal record, you’d fancy her to get a few chances against this shaky defence. Caruso, of course, offers that midfield bite and long-range threat, and with players like Giugliano and Cantore feeding the attack, the Azzurre should find enough openings.

“Portugal look like a team stuck in reverse, and against a disciplined Italian unit, it’s hard to see them holding up for 90 minutes. Italy should win this by a couple.”
– BettingTips4You.com expert Luca Pratesi

So the smart play is Italy to win and for there to be at least two goals in the match. Not an avalanche, but enough to make the point.

Correct Score Prediction: Italy 2-0 Portugal

While Italy may not run riot, they should have enough to see this through with a bit of breathing room. Portugal haven’t scored in four straight, and Italy’s recent defensive record is decent. A professional 2-0 feels about right—safe at the back, clinical when it counts.
