Albania vs Latvia prediction
Albania come into this one on the back of a slender 1-0 defeat of Gibraltar at the Europa Sports Complex in their most recent outing the other day, courtesy of a 69th minute winning penalty scored by Jasir Asani. They are now unbeaten in four matches since losing 2-0 to England at Wembley Stadium in March.
They face a Latvia side that have yet to collect a point from their FIFA World Cup qualifying group just yet. The Latvians most recently suffered a slender 1-0 loss in a hard-fought encounter against the Serbians, with Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic scoring the only goal of the game in the first-half.
Albania are a poor team going forward but they are very solid and have enough quality to see off teams of the quality and pedigree of Latvia, especially in Tirana.
Albania vs Latvia tip: Albania to win & under 3.5 goals
