Can Roberto Mancini win a major tournament with Italy?

The Acca pays approximately 11/2

There is an 11/2 Nations League Daily Acca for Paul Robinson this evening, and it begins in the Netherlands. Here are his selections:

No Koeman, No Problem

Bet 1: Back Netherlands 1/2 - KO 19:45 BST

Holland were dealt a blow when Barcelona came calling for Ronald Koeman, so they begin their Nations League campaign with his former assistant coach, Dwight Lodeweges, in charge.

Hopefully it won't make too much of a difference to the Dutch, as they were beginning to get back to where they belong in World football, and I am actually more concerned about the likes of Matthijs de Ligt and Daley Blind being out through injury.

With that being said, Poland, are without Robert Lewandowski, and with the Poles performing poorly in this tournament last time, I can't see them getting anything from their trip to Amsterdam.

Italy to win again

Bet 2: Back Italy @ 1/3 - KO 19:45 BST

The Italians are an even shorter price than Holland, but they have an easier game.

Their opponents are Bosnia-Herzegovina, and they massively underperformed in Euro 2020 qualifying.

Dušan Bajević has replaced the out-going, Robert Prosinečki, but it will be hard to turn their fortunes around immediately - especially in Florence.

Roberto Mancini's men had a 100% record in qualifying, as they won all 10 of their fixtures - including their two against Bosnia.

Northern Ireland to earn an away point

Bet 3: Back The Draw in Romania v Northern Ireland @ 11/5 - KO 19:45 BST
