THE PREDICTION
Canada head into this final round-robin fixture knowing that they could still be knocked out of the top four by Sweden, so victory for them is imperative. However, they come up against Italy, who are one win away from securing a flawless 9-0 record in the round-robin stage. Both Stefania Constantini and Amos Mosaner have been outstanding throughout the event so far, boasting the strongest offence and conceding the least number of points. However, there is still pressure on them knowing how important it is to enter the next round on a high. When the going gets tough, the tough get going and matches such as this are made for the likes of John Morris. The Canadian boasts bucketloads of experience when it comes to high pressure matches at the Olympics and a fixture such as this is expected to bring out the very best in him. With that in mind, backing Canada to triumph and all but seal their spot in the top four looks a smart move.
