Croatia - Albania: Form Analysis
While Croatia are only third-favourite to qualify from Group B, they always tend to turn up when it counts. They finished second in their group during qualifying behind Turkey. In their eight qualification matches, the Checkered Ones managed a record of five wins, one draw and two losses. The Croats suffered defeat in their first match of the competition, losing 3-0 to Spain. They made a very poor start to the match, conceding three goals in the first half alone and struggled to find their rhythm across the 90. That defeat brought an end to a six-match winning streak, during which they kept four clean sheets. Croatia were knocked out in the round of 16 at the last European Championship, while their best finish was reaching the quarter-final back in 2008. The Blazers have never faced this opponent in a competitive match in the past but are the bookmakers’ favourite in this one.
Meanwhile, ranked 66th according to FIFA World Rankings, Albania were one of the biggest surprise packages during qualifying. They finished top of their group, holding off the likes of the Czech Republic and Poland. During qualifying, the Black and Reds posted a record of four wins, three draws and one loss. That record secured their place in the main draw for only the second time in their history with the previous being in 2016. After winning both their warm-up matches this month, Albania almost made the perfect start to the competition, scoring inside the first minute against Italy in their opening match. Unfortunately, they were unable to hold on to their lead as the Italians came back to win 2-1. Still, there was enough in that performance to suggest that the Albanians are one to watch in this group.

Croatia & Albania Squad Analysis
Ivan Perisic was a doubt in the build-up to Croatia’s opening match against Spain and was left out of the starting 11 due to a knee injury. The former Tottenham Hotspur man did feature off the bench for the final half-hour, though, and will be in contention to start in this one. Luka Modric had a very quiet first match by his standards and the Croats will need the 2018 Ballon d'Or winner to step up in this key fixture.
Albania have no known injury concerns for this match and should maintain a fairly similar lineup to the one we saw against Italy last time out. Head coach Sylvinho made a shocking decision to cut Sokol Cikalleshi from the Euro 2024 squad despite the striker being a regular during qualifying. Therefore, Chelsea forward Armando Broja will most likely continue to lead the line for the Red and Blacks with the support of AC Milan attacker Kristjan Asllani.

Our Croatia vs Albania Prediction
After losing their first match of the competition, both teams will see this as a must-win fixture and are likely to go all-out for victory. With plenty of firepower in both camps, coupled with leaky defences of late, we feel this will be an open encounter and fancy there will be a few goals scored before the final whistle. Our Croatia vs Albania prediction: Over 2.5 goals!
