Do not take friendlies before WC so seriously too, but I think Italy has a clear edge against Germany if they meet in semifinal. And at every part of the pitch (keeper, defense, midfield and attack).
It's just one game and everything can happen in a space of just 90/120 minutes, but, in my modest opinion, Italy is favourite. They "just" need to beat Ukraine first...
