THE PREDICTION

The only unbeaten nation remain in the Mixed Doubles Curling puts that record on the line against lowly Australia. Competing in their first Curling event at Olympic level, the Aussie team have struggled to close out matches, not clutching up at crucial moments and are now left with little chance of qualifying for the next round. Italy on the other hand, are making a habit of finding ways to win and with victories against United States, Switzerland, Norway and Czech Republic already under their belt, it would be a big surprise if they didn’t make it five in a row against Australia. Whilst Italy will need to guard against complacency, they simply have to be favoured in this one.
