Few groups look to be as closely contested as Group B, with both Italy and Albania fully aware that the presence of Spain and Croatia in their group will put the pressure on from the outset. Defending champions Italy have been through the mill since their Euro 2020 triumph but they are back in the big time now, whilst debutants Albania will be chasing a huge shock here with all punters and Euro 2024 betting apps<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Italy vs Albania Analysis
<\/strong>Both of these sides will be chasing a positive start to Euro 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Italy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has been a topsy-turvy three years since Italy lifted the European Championship trophy at Wembley in July 2021. Roberto Mancini has been ousted as manager, as Italy failed to reach the 2022 World Cup and there has been a real changing of the guard within the playing squad. However, they are back in the big time at Euro 2024, as defending champions and they are always tough to beat in tournament football.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Italy<\/strong> Predicted Lineup:<\/strong>
Donnaruma, Darmian, Buongiorno, Dimarco, Calafiori, Bellanova, Jorginho, Cambiaso, Chiesa, Frattesi & Scamacca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Albania<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will be a tournament to remember for Albania, who have qualified for the European Championships for the first time under former Arsenal and Manchester City player Sylvinho. The Brazilian has transformed the fortunes of the Albanian national side and whilst the draw hasn\u2019t been kind to them, they know that they have absolutely nothing to lose here at Euro 2024 and they look set to enjoy the ride as complete minnows with most punters and Euro 2024 betting sites<\/a>.

Albania Predicted Lineup:<\/strong>
Berisha, Hysaj, Ajeti, Mitaj, Djimsiti, Asllani, Ramadani, Asani, Bajrami, Seferi & Cikalleshi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Italy vs Albania Prediction
<\/strong>Getting off to a good start is always important in major tournament football and both Italy and Albania will be keen to hit the ground running here. Italy tend to turn on the style at big tournaments and whilst Albania won\u2019t necessarily fear playing against them, they know that they have a tall order on their hands. This may not be as one sided as the odds suggest but Italy are the strong favourites to prevail here.  
Prediction:<\/strong> Italy to win the match \u2013 2\/5 (-250)<\/strong><\/a> – <\/strong>Jeffbet<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Italy to win & BTTS \u2013 <\/strong>9\/2 (+450)<\/strong><\/a> – <\/strong>Betgoodwin<\/strong><\/a>
<\/strong>This should be a super contest in Dortmund, with Italy needing to go out and put on a show as the defending champions. Albania could trouble them at times but the Italians should be too good if they play anywhere near their best football.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
