Croatia – Albania EURO 2024 Preview
We are heading to Hamburg where Croatia will go head to head with Albania in a match from Group B of the Euro 2024. Please stay with us and our accurate football predictions today. We go now!
Both Croatia and Albania have 0 points after the first round in this group. The Blazers suffered a heavy 0-3 defeat against Spain while Albania lost against Italy in Dortmund. The Albanian team scored the quickest goal in the history of the Euros, but soon after this the Azzurri turned the game around.
Croatia’s manager Zlatko Dalic admitted that his team didn’t play well against Spain. The Croatians actually scored once, but Bruno Petkovic’ goal in the second half was disallowed. Overally Croatia were outperformed by the Spanish side.
Now Dalic could refresh his team with some changes in the line-up. Ivan Perisic is the obvious choice for the manager while Mario Pasalic and Bruno Petkovic could be options for the team as well.
Albania scored a very quick goal against Italy thanks to Nedim Bajrami, but Sylvinho’s team was unable to hold its lead. Now they have another chance to win some points.
Most likely Sylvinho will keep his 4-2-3-1 formation, but changes could be made. Qazim Laci, Arber Hoxha and Ernest Muci are some of the players who could start against the World Cup 1/2-finalists.
Fulham’s striker Armando Broja remains the biggest threat for Albania’s opposition. The former Chelsea striker is just 22-years old, but he could be very dangerous on his day. Players like Asani and Seferi are expected to support him in the attack.
That’s the accurate football predictions today for the Euro 2024 clash between Croatia and Albania. Both teams are looking for a first win, but Croatia are obviously the favorites here. They should not underestimate Albania, though – this could be dangerous.
