Match Preview: Croatia vs Albania
Given that Group B also contains Spain and Italy, this is a match that both countries will feel that they have to win. Croatia are the odds-on favourites in the betting and will be expected to grab all three points as they bid to avoid an upset against Albania.
Croatia may not have enjoyed a stellar qualifying campaign, during which they finished runners-up to Turkey, but they arrived in Germany on the back of a six game winning run, which included a 2-1 victory over Portugal. So often underestimated, Croatia represent an attractive dark horse bet at 40/1 as they seek to engineer another memorable major tournament.
In Modric, Brozovic, and Kovacic they have a stellar midfield who will look to overwhelm Albania. Croatia aren't exactly famed for their attacking talent and could become frustrated against an opponent who conceded just four goals in qualifying. Albania may be inexperienced at this level but with the pressure on Croatia to get the win, they will feel that they have a fighting chance of causing an upset.
The Best Betting Markets for Croatia vs Albania
Croatia come alive at major tournaments, often finding a way to win low-scoring encounters. Given that they are up against an Albania side that prides itself on a strong defence, I think the 13/8 on offer for a Croatia win and under 2.5 goals has a lot of appeal here, while a 1-0 win can be backed at 5/1.
