France come into this game against Albania with some cracking form behind them. They managed to put in a solid performance against Romania, but need it a special goal in order to see them through to the next round. France will feel confident with the win in front of their home fans. Both Giroud and Greizmann were in cracking form, while Payet was nicely pulling the strings in midfield. Paul Pogba has yet to stamp his authority in the tournament, and will use this match as an opportunity to do so, and lead his team to the next round. France have had the scoring touch well and their last 5 straight games in 2016 seeing them have over 2.5 goals in their games.
Albania had put in a good effort to keep the Swiss down just to 1-0 in their last game, despite going down to 10 men. The Albanian will struggle to contain these French team, who dominate the midfield, that will be area of concern fro Albania especially with captain Cana out of this encounter due to the red card. Albania have the poorest offensive coming into this game 7 goals from 8 games. Unless you can score against the French, there is no way that you will be able to beat them, especially with their offensive form in full strut.
These 2 sides met back in qualification for the 2012 European Championships, and both those games saw France win and over 2.5 goals scored in that encounter; and I am backing over 2.5 goals in the match between France & Albania.
