Albania

The game of the second round against Croatia ended in a draw (2:2). The Albanian winless streak has already reached 4 official games (3 draws, 1 defeat). Their European Championship results leave much to be desired too, as they have won only 1 out of their last 5 games (1 draw, 3 defeats). Albania are bound to win.

• A maximum of 3 goals have been scored in 6 out of the last 7 official games Albania have played.
• Albania have scored at least a goal in 8 out of their last 9 official games.

Spain

Spain beat Italy (1:0) in the second round. The Spanish lossless streak has already reached 10 official games (9 wins and 1 draw in regular time). Spain haven’t lost in regular time their last 8 European Championship games (3 wins, 5 draws). Spain have already topped the group and secured their place in the knockout phase.

• Spain have scored at least 2 goals in 6 out of their last 8 official games. 
• Spain have scored the first goal in their last 8 official games.

Albania – Spain Prediction

Albania have a difficult problem to solve. They need to beat the leaders of the group. Albania may finish third even if this game ends in a draw. However, 2 points are not likely to be enough to advanсe to the knockout phase. Albania are often an inconvenient opponent. The opponents of Albania have won with over a 1-goal lead only 1 out of the last 5 European Championship games.

Spain have currently solved all their problems. The Spanish coach will change many players. The leaders will have some time to take some rest to have an extra advantage in the Round of 16. The side hasn’t won in regular time with at least a 2-goal lead in 8 out of their last 10 European Championship games. 

Our prediction is Albania +1.5 at 13/20 .
