Italy head into Wednesday’s opening quarter final as favourites for victory despite having to rely on a surprise Belgium victory over Portugal in the final night of Group B to book their place in the last eight.
Four points was enough for Andrea Soncin’s side to secure second place in their group following their opening day 1-0 win over Belgium before a 1-1 draw with Portugal preceded a 3-1 defeat to world champions Spain in their final outing.
Le Azzurre‘s run to the knockout stage equals the nation’s best performance at the Euros since 1997, and will return to Geneva backing themselves at a returning to winning ways after their defeat to Spain on Friday night ended their five match unbeaten run.

Norway, despite finishing top of Group A with a 100% group stage record, head into the quarter final clash as underdogs, ranked three places lower than the 13th placed Italians in FIFA’s world rankings.
2-1 victories against hosts Switzerland and Finland was followed by a 4-3 win against Iceland in Thursday’s Group A finale to cement a perfect record for the two-time champions, securing themselves a spot in the last eight for the first time in 12 years.
Managed by former Leeds, Middlesbrough and Wales manager Gemma Grainger, Norway have now won their last four competitive matches, losing just one of their last eight.
The last two meetings between the two teams have both ended in draws, with Italy unbeaten in their last three against the Norwegians have won only once against their Scandinavian opponents since the turn of the century.
