Croatia vs. Albania is the game that kicks off the second round of the group phase of the Euro 2024. The game is on the program on Wednesday, June 19, at Volksparkstadion in Hamburg where nearly 60k spectators are expected to witness goals galore. To learn why we expect to see plenty of goals, just keep on reading our Croatia vs. Albania prediction!
Before Betting on Croatia vs. Albania Euro 2024 Game
Croatia and Albania are in Group B, together with the defending champion Italy and the winner of the last edition of the UEFA Nations League, Spain. You can think of it as the “group of death” of the 2024 Euro, which is why every single game is of extreme importance for everyone involved.
You can be certain that both teams will go all-in on Tuesday, especially given that both are without any points after one round of the Euro 2024. As a reminder, Croatia got hammered by Spain 3:0, while Albania lost 2:1 to Italy.
Not only are both teams hungry for points, but they both seem to prefer attacking rather than defending. Croatia has such offensive-minded players on the roster as captain Luka Modric, but also Andrej Kramaric, Ante Budimir, and others.
Albania doesn’t have too many big stars on the roster, but the Red and Blacks do have some amazing forwards – Armando Broja, Jasir Asani, and Nedim Bajrami – the man who scored the goal against Italy after only 22 seconds.
Croatia vs. Albania Offshore Odds and Pick
The Euro 2024 odds favor Croatia to win. No surprise there, but we don’t think the Checkered Ones will have an easy job. We predict that Albania will fight back, possibly even scoring a goal or two. If that happens, Croatia will have no other option but to put everything they’ve got on the offense. As a result, we could see a lot of goals on Wednesday. And we do mean a lot!
