Hungary to Win
With wins over Andorra and San Marino, Albania finds themselves in Group I’s battle for the second spot. While they have made little work of group underdogs, Hungary are a different beast. They are in the comfortable surroundings of Air Albania Stadium but a positive result looks unlikely. The Magyars have claimed three wins at their expense and will fancy their chances against them.
Under 2.5 Goals
Hungary has seen three of their last four fixtures conclude with an Over 2.5 goals scoreline, but those results were made possible at their expense. They have scored three of thirteen goals exhibited in these fixtures. A similar goal-scoring tally has been witnessed in matches involving Albania, who have four goals to their name in the same period.
Both Teams to Score: No
Matches involving Hungary tend to see just one side get on the scoreboard. Six of their last ten matches have seen a clean sheet at the conclusion of 90 minutes of action. With Albania seeing a clean sheet in five of their last ten matches, it looks unlikely that both teams will be represented on the scoreboard in this September 05 meeting.

While they have recorded impressive victories of Group I’s punching bags, they need to give a better account of their abilities against more established outfits. Edoardo Reja needs to ensure that Sokol Cikalleshi gets them on the scoreboard while Etrit Berisha keeps their rivals out.
Hungary
The 2022 World Cup qualifiers are the last hurrah for Adam Szalai and his batch of experienced campaigners. To make matters worse, the ugly side of football continues to rear its head in the terraces. Their 4-0 defeat at the hands of was problematic for racist issues and it is bound to have its impact on their trip to Albania, and the negative press that surrounds them. Marco Rossi is in damage control and cannot afford his side to slip up as the going gets tough.
