England v Albania Betting Tips [21 March 2025]

Rejuvenated England will start the journey towards the 2026 World Cup with a home match against Albania. Playing in Group K, England will later face Andorra, Latvia and Serbia in the pool. Read on for our prediction of this match. 

This match will mark the first of Thomas Tuchel at the Three Lions’ helm. There will definitely be pressure at Wembley but England are expected to see this off. 

The home team has three straight wins ahead of this encounter and lost just twice in the last 10 matches. The most recent outing saw England thrash Ireland 5-0, the same score line they posted in the last meeting with Albania.

In six matches against England, Albania have suffered six defeats. While they conceded heavily in these meetings, Albania only managed to score one goal.

They face a hungry England and playing away from home, Albania will have trouble containing the Three Lions. They aren’t coming off a good run either. In their last outing, Albania returned bruised, after losing 2-1 at home to Ukraine. 

That was their second winless match, and they have just one win in their last five matches. England was the last away team Albania faced in the European region World Cup qualifiers.

England will definitely be coming into this game as favorites. Their numbers at Wembley are impressive and they face a weak opponent. In all their six meetings in history Albania have never beaten England. The most recent saw England score five times without an answer.

The visitors have only one goal in matches against England and we don’t expect much to change here. Also, they find England enjoying a good run. Our prediction for England v Albania is for England to win and over 2.5 goals.
