Moldova vs Albania 17.11.2023 Prediction: EURO Qualifiers

Match Overview

Moldova and Albania take each other on in a low-ranking encounter in the EURO Qualifiers on 17 November at the Zimbru Stadium. While Moldova are ranked 157 by FIFA, Albania sit on the 59th position of the same rankings. Albania might have an upper hand over their opponents, but it will not be as black and white as we are making it out to be.

Key Highlights 

There have been a total of four games recorded between these two teams in the past, out of which Moldova have won none. Albania have been victorious on three occasions while one game was played out as a drawn encounter. Moldova's lack of success against Albania in the past will severely hamper their chances of doing so on Friday as well.

Injury Report

While Moldova may have to make do without the presence of Ion Nicolaescu and Victor Stina for this game, Albania will be able to select their best possible starting lineup as they do not have any absentees whatsoever.

Prediction

Albania are the overwhelming favourites of winning this game, and we expect them to do so quite comfortably by the end of the evening. Albania have scored at least two goals or more in three of the four occasions that they have come up against Moldova. What will boost their confidence further is that they have never conceded a goal against Moldova.
