England and Albania will kick off their World Cup Qualifiers in Group K with an exciting matchup at the Webley Stadium. The Three Lions will come into this game as the heavy -835 betting favorites looking to lay down a marker in the group. This will be their first competitive game with Thomas Tuchel in the dugout. He knows the daggers could be out if his men fail to get results against Albania and Latvia this week. This should be a walkover for the English side, at least on paper.
Albania, meanwhile, has a mountain to climb on Friday. Many will write them off in this matchup, although they’ll be more than happy to return home with a draw or even a surprise win. Their recent form has been a little worrying after drawing 0-0 with the Czech Republic and losing 2-1 to Ukraine in their latest assignments. However, they performed admirably well in the 2024 UEFA Euro group stage, which also had Spain, Italy, and Croatia. They can pull a surprise here.

Our England vs Albania Prediction
This is only the second time England and Albania are locking horns in a competitive setting. These sides last met at the 2021 UEFA World Cup Qualifiers, with England winning both encounters on a 7-0 aggregate. We expect them to fly out of the gates on Friday night and give the German coach a winning foundation to build on. Tuchel will likely start Harry Kane, Foden, and Rashford in attack, with Jude Bellingham providing clutch moments from the midfield. This attacking talent should simply be too much for Albania to handle. Our prediction for England vs Albania: England to score over 2.5 goals.
