Euro 2016 returns on Friday afternoon a couple of interesting matches. Three teams could book their spot in the knockout rounds, while a few others could be staring elimination directly in the face at the end of the day. And, we start with a potential great match.
Italy vs. Sweden (Group E)
Italy surprised everyone with a comprehensive victory over Belgium in their first match. In their second, they will dare to Zlatan. Italy can book their spot in the knockout rounds with a victory over Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Sweden, and the Italians will be the favorites to take all three points, despite various claims that this is the “worst Italian team ever”.

Czech Republic vs. Croatia (Group D)
Luka Modric scored an incredible goal in Croatia’s 1-0 victory over Turkey in the first game, and they’ll be looking to do the same against the Czech Republic in game two. If Croatia can snag another victory, they’ll guarantee themselves a spot in the knockout rounds regardless of what happens in other games.

Spain vs. Turkey (Group D)
The final match of the day features Bayern Munich midfield Thiago Alcantara and Spain against Turkey. The Spanish received an 87th minute goal from Gerard Pique in their first match against the Czech Republic to start the tournament with a victory and will be hoping that they can do the same against Turkey. It will be interesting to see how long Vincente Del Bosque sticks with Cesc Fabregas over Thiago.
