**Match Preview: Switzerland vs. Italy – Handball World Championship**
On May 13, 2026, Switzerland will host Italy in what promises to be an engaging clash in the Handball World Championship. The Swiss team enters this fixture on a challenging note, having lost both of their most recent matches. Despite this, they maintain a home advantage, where they historically perform better.
Italy, on the other hand, has not seen any recent competitive action that may provide insight into their current form. This absence of match experience could serve as a disadvantage as they face a Swiss side eager to capitalize on their home crowd support.
Tactically, Switzerland is likely to leverage their familiarity with the venue to enhance their aggressive style of play, focusing on swift transitions and solid defensive structures. Italy must find a way to disrupt this flow, potentially employing a more conservative approach to mitigate the Swiss attack.
Bookmakers indicate Switzerland as strong favorites, offering odds of 1.29 compared to Italy’s 4.95, with a predicted final score of 30:26 favoring the home team. While Switzerland looks poised for a win, the unpredictability of sport ensures that anything can happen on match day.
