Albania vs Spain preview
Spain should enjoy a relatively comfortable evening having already secured progression to the knockout stages of Euro 2024 as winners of Group B.
Luis de la Fuente’s side dispatched Croatia 3-0 in their opening fixture before a dominant display over Italy.
Spain were scintillating and could have won by a bigger margin were it not for the heroics of Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
Their display drew plaudits from all over Europe with the Spanish press confident that Thursday night’s performance was their best in over 10 years.
Others suggested it was like watching Manchester City against a Championship side with Spain now 5/1 to win the tournament.
EURO 2024 FREE BETS AND OFFERS
Changes to the starting XI are expected with the likes of Dani Olmo and Mikel Oyarzabal expected to feature with Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal rested.
But that’s unlikely to hamper Spain too much, and they’ll go into Monday’s contest with high hopes having beaten Albania in all eight of their meetings by an aggregate scoreline of 31-3.
As for Albania, who are FIFA’s 66th-ranked side just ahead of Burkina Faso and behind Uzbekistan, they still have hopes of progressing to the knockouts.
Their last-gasp equaliser against Croatia earned Sylvinho’s side a crucial point and means that a shock win over Spain would see them through as one of the best third-placed teams regardless of what happens between Italy and Croatia.

Albania vs Spain betting tips
There’s Yar goalscorer
Obviously waiting for the starting XI is advised, but Real Sociedad’s Mikel Oyarzabal should start for Spain tonight given their position in Group B.
Oyarzabal, 27, netted 14 goals in 44 appearances for his club last season, and has 11 in 32 caps for Spain at international level.
He arrived at the tournament having scored four goals in their final two friendly matches, including a hat-trick when played in the centre-forward position.
He should get on the scoresheet tonight if starting ahead of Alvaro Morata, who could do with a rest.
- Mikel Oyarzabal to score anytime at 15/8 with William Hill – CLAIM HERE
Saves
It should be another extremely busy evening for Albania’s goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha.
Albania have performed admirably at this summer’s competition, but they’ve still shipped a whopping 36 goal attempts in their two games against Italy and Croatia.
The Brentford goalkeeper made three saves against Italy, and made EIGHT against Croatia during that 2-2 thriller.
With Spain’s attacking resources and their freedom of having already qualified as group winners, I think Strakosha could well have his hands full tonight.
- Thomas Strakosha to make over six saves at 4/1 with William Hill – CLAIM HERE
Yellow warning
Klaus Gjasula has put on something of a booking masterclass in recent history.
The Albania and Darmstadt midfielder, 34, has seen yellow in three of his last four outings for club and country.
He also has 165 cautions in 408 matches in his entire career, and 10 in 29 caps for Albania in all competitions.
