Main Tip – Match result: England to win (Tip 2)
England are overwhelming favourites on current form and table position. They have won all seven qualifying matches to date, scoring 20 goals and conceding none. Their away record in the group reads three wins in three attempts. Albania has been resilient at home, but their scoring output across the campaign (7 goals for, 3 against) and previous head-to-head history against England (England have won each of the last five meetings) indicate a significant qualitative gap between the sides. England possesses greater depth in attack, consistent defensive organisation, and superior recent results across all competitions. Consequently, the principal betting tip for this fixture is an away win for England. Best available odds for the match-winner market: Tip 2 (England to win) — Betway with odd 1.45.
Tip 2: Both teams score? No
Given England’s defensive record in qualifying — 20 goals scored and 0 conceded — and Albania’s comparatively modest goal output, a low-likelihood scenario is that both teams find the net. While Albania has scored across the campaign, England’s disciplined defensive setup underlines the probability of England keeping a clean sheet. Additionally, Albania’s attacking figures and England’s recent shutouts suggest that the more probable outcome is that England scores while preventing Albania from scoring. For these reasons, the recommended prediction on the Both Teams To Score market is “No”. Best available odds for the BTTS market: Both teams to score — No — Paripesa with odds 1.77.

Tip 3 – Correct Score Prediction: 0:2 England
A 0:2 away victory for England is our projected correct score. This forecast aligns with England’s clean-sheet record in qualifying and their history of winning by decisive yet realistic margins away from home. The result mirrors the most recent direct meeting outcome — a 2:0 win for England — and reflects expectations that England will control the match without requiring an excessive goal tally. As a correct-score selection, 0:2 offers a plausible balance between likelihood and value when compared with higher-margin outcomes.
