Prediction: 1-1
Georgia
Buoyed by a 2-1 win over Ukraine, Albania will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Georgia on Tuesday evening. The Albanians kicked off their Nations League campaign in style and, no doubt, they are brimming with confidence ahead of the visit of Georgia. Barring any fresh injury worries, head coach Sylvinho is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Ukrainians. Sivasspor attacker Rey Manaj should continue leading the line for the hosts.
The visitors, on the other hand, rolled over Czech Republic 4-1 in their opener, with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia opening his goal-scoring account. The Napoli star is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line and given Georgia’s attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. There are no fresh injury concerns in the away team.
Highlighted Team (Albania):
The Albanian national football team has represented the country on international stage since 1946, and it is interesting to note that Albania was one of the founding members of UEFA back in 1954. The Eagles have enjoyed very little success in the 20th century, but they managed to show some improvement at the turn of the century and eventually secured their first ever appearance at a major tournament.
Albania qualified for the Euro 2016 finals as they came second in their qualifying group behind Portugal, taking 14 points from 8 matches, with Italian coach Gianni De Biasi at the helm. The Eagles have never qualified for the World Cup finals in 11 attempts, winning mere 14 of 94 World Cup qualifiers.
Former Lazio defender Lorik Cana has worn the captain’s armband over the last few years and he is Albania’s most capped player, while former Chievo forward Erjon Bogdani still holds the record for most goals for the national team, with 18 strikes in 74 appearances.
