Sunday's international friendly predictions including Italy vs. Ecuador

San Marino vs. Saint Kitts (Sunday, 7.45pm)

After squaring off on Wednesday, San Marino and Saint Kitts and Nevis will do battle in the second of a pair of friendlies in Serravalle on Sunday.

The visitors came from behind to prevail in the first meeting at the San Marino Stadium, extending the hosts' 20-year wait for a second win in their history.

We say: San Marino 1-3 Saint Kitts and Nevis

San Marino did show signs of encouragement on Wednesday and will hope to turn positives into an elusive victory, but the visitors certainly have more quality and should make it back-to-back wins in Serravalle.

Ecuador vs. Italy (Sunday, 8.00pm)

Both winners in their opening Stateside friendly, Ecuador and Italy will meet at New Jersey's Red Bull Arena on Sunday.

While the Azzurri saw off Venezuela in Miami, their South American counterparts continued building up to the Copa America by beating Guatemala.

We say: Ecuador 1-1 Italy

While Italy are still a work in progress, they should possess enough guile to unlock Ecuador's increasingly mean defence - but La Tri can be expected to score too. With one eye on the summer, both managers may experiment during the second half, so a draw represents a decent result for either side.

Guatemala vs. Venezuela (Sunday, 10.00pm)

Both completing their trips to the USA, Guatemala and Venezuela will meet for an international friendly in Texas on Sunday evening.

La Bicolor were beaten by Ecuador earlier this week, while their South American counterparts suffered defeat at the hands of European champions Italy.

We say: Guatemala 0-2 Venezuela

Venezuela are increasingly hard to beat, and they caused Italy some problems in Miami, coming close to stealing a draw. As Guatemala's goal threat is minimal, La Vinotinto should coast to victory on Sunday evening.
