Betting suggestion:
The '' handicap -1.5 of Italy '' is the market we recommend for this match. Despite playing away from home, the Italians have a team far superior to the opponent, and they should have several opportunities to score goals. On the other hand, Albania should enter the field with a defensive mentality, looking only for counterattacks, however, in vain. Having said that, Italy has all the conditions to achieve an easy triumph in this game.

Preview
Albania and Italy face at Stadiumi Loro Boriçi, in a match for this stage of the WC Qualification Europe (1st Round). In 2 head‑to‑heads in the last 3 years, the away team won 2. Albania registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.
Analysis Albania
After 4 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, the home team is currently in the 3rd position, with 13 points won. In the last match, they have lost (3‑0) in an away match against Spain, after in the previous round they have tied (1‑1) in an away match against FYR Macedonia. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 18 goals scored and 14 conceded; against 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 20 conceded. In the last 4 WC Qualification Europe home matches Albania has a record of 2 wins and 2 losses. In 9 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 10 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').
Albania leaves for this match with a 3-0 away defeat against Spain, putting an end to the three straight games without losing in this competition. Despite playing at home, coach Christian Panucci should organize his team in the usual 4-3-3, privileging defensive organization and direct balls for the attack, especially for striker Azdren Llullaku. Note that the Albanian national team presents great difficulties in maintaining ball possession and defensive transition due to lack of technique of their players. It seems that the manager can count on all the players of the last match.
