Italy joins the Euro 2024 tournament while defending their 11th European Championship. This nation will intend to be the second team to win consecutive Euros after Spain did it in 2008 and 2012. The Azzuri arrrive Germany undefeated in six matches, yet are haunted by not qualifying for the last World Cup.
Despite defensive absences, Italy have not conceded a single goal in their previous 317 minutes of play, including a 0-0 draw with Turkey and winning on Sunday over Bosnia-Herzegovina in two pre-tournament friendlies. They will now fight to keep an impressive record at European Championships.

Albania topped their group in style after losing their opening match against Poland. They were undefeated in the next seven, finishing ahead of the Poles and second-position Czech Republic. The Euro 2024 draw was unkind, and they will face familiar foes in their first fixture. Nine players in the Albanian team play in the Italian Serie A.
Additionally, recently friendly victories over Liechtenstein and Azerbaijan; the first a 3-1 win in Tirana last week, will do little to assure naysayers that Albania can advance from this year’s “Group of Death’’. Regardless, they have little to lose in Group B and are more accustomed to winning, so they might pull off an upset or two.
MatchPlug Prediction For Italy VS Albania
This fixture will feel like a high-stakes, with how strong the other clubs are in Group B, so it could be an intense and careful encounter for Italy in Dortmund. The final score could be determined by one goal, with Italy having enough experience to win over Albania.
