Football Bet of the Day: Albania to go flying into Portugal

Albania v Portugal
Monday 19:45

Iceland went cold on Kevin last night, but he finishes the week in a good place: even the 0-0 in Reykjavik couldn't stop him posting a profit from the last seven days.

Our shift begins in Albania, where Gianni Di Biasi's national Eagles have a proud record of scoring in each of their last 14 competitive home games.

With three Euro 2016 qualifiers to go, a point or more will lift Di Biasi's men into one of Group I's two automatic qualifying spots. Visiting Portugal are top of the table, but just one point clear of both their hosts and Denmark. Both sides should be fully committed and that makes us think there might be a few goals at Elbasan Stadium tonight.

The Portuguese have conceded at least once in 6/8 away qualifiers since the start of their World Cup 2014 campaign. At the other end, they've got Cristiano Ronaldo, who has helped them strike 16 times in their most recent six competitive road games. The Iberians came to Albania in 2009 and left with a 2-1 win. We think there's half a chance of something similar going down in Elbasan this evening.
