Two of these teams play here, as first place is on the line in Tirana.
The most recent outing between Albania and the Czech Republic ended up a 1-1 draw. The best betting odds on a draw at full-time with the bookies are at 11/5.
Going into the sixth round of this group, Albania rank as number one with ten points, whereas the Czech Republic won themselves eight points, placing them as number two. Albania bid welcome to Czech Republic as number 62 in the FIFA world ranking, while the latter rank as number 37.
As rather big outsiders in this group, it would be a big upset if Albania were able to hold on to the top spot in the group. The Czechs failed to win their home match against the Albanians, giving the latter all kinds of motivation to seek another surprise. With Poland and Moldova also in the running for tickets in this group, a defeat could prove expensive.
