Italy Betting Preview
Italy faced off against Bosnia and Herzegovina and they were able to secure the 1-0 victory last Sunday. Italy had a goal scored by Davide Frattesi in the 38th minute, and they were able to secure the 1-0 victory. Italy had 64 percent of the possession and six shots on target, but even more impressive was the defense that stepped up in a big way. Italy is dealing with some major issues heading into this game with injury. Francesco Acerbi, Giorgio Scalvini, Nicolo Zaniolo, Domenico Berardi, Destiny Udogie and Sandro Tonali will all be watching this match from the sidelines. In this game Italy is going to need the defense to be good to really try to put the pressure on Albania.
Albania Betting Preview
Albania has won two straight games and they have confidence heading into this game. Albania faced off against Azerbaijan and they were able to secure the 3-1 victory last Friday. Nedrim Bajarmi scored in the 12th minute, and they never looked back on the way to the victory. The one goal that Albania gave up was in the 90th minute. Berat Djimsiti is the best player on this team, and he is going to need to have a strong game here. If he struggles, this is going to be a long game for this squad.
Italy vs Albania Prediction
This total is too high. Italy’s offense is good, but this Albania defense is also good, and that is going to be the case again here. Albania defense is going to step up in a big way here. I don’t expect Alabania’s offense is going to really struggle to get anything going here, and that is going to be the difference here. Both teams are going to struggle to score here, and this game is going to stay under the total.
