Albania take on the visitors Israel in the round 3 match in League B of Nations League. The match will be played on Friday, June 10th at Air Albania Stadium (Tirana).
Albania is trying to maintain the status of a fairly tough nut to crack. The Eagles made their debut at the European Championship in 2016. But then it will not be possible to repeat this result. On the other hand, it cannot be said that the Albanians have again fallen back to the level of outsiders. In the last draw of the League of Nations, it was possible to win the group and move up to division B. And during last year's qualification, Eduardo Rei's wards fought to the last for 2nd place in the group, but in the end lost by 2 points to the notable competitor, Poland. This summer they started only in the second round, in Reykjavik, with Iceland. And they even took the lead after Seferi's goal, match ended in a 1-1 draw.

Israel cannot yet become something more than a modest team. The "White-Blues" are considered to be quite a strong team. They don't have such bright stars, but they have enough good performers. Yes, it’s impossible to qualify for any of the top tournaments. The Israelis were the closest to qualifying for Euro 2020, but they still lost in the playoffs. And in qualifying for the World Cup, only 16 points were gained. Yes, this is another 3rd place, but even behind Scotland, who came 2nd, there are big difference in points, 16 against 23. Now, due to injuries, it has not been possible to assemble the optimal line-up. And, above all, did not have time to recover Eran Zahavi, the team's best scorer in history.
In total, 4 head-to-heads were played, all in the interval from 2016 to 2018. First, in the selection for the World Cup, the parties exchanged away victories, and in the League of Nations - home successes. Albania is regarded as a favorite in its field, but Israel is quite equal to it in terms of strength. So there will be a fight, but, especially given the absence of Zahavi, few goals - we bet on “less than 2.5 goals"
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
