England vs Albania Bet Builder Tips: Gordon can deliver for the Three Lions

All eyes will be on Wembley this Friday when Thomas Tuchel begins his England reign with a 2026 World Cup qualifying match against Albania (19:45, ITV1).

We bring you some England vs Albania Bet Builder Tips which you can find below.

Football Odds

England to win

As this is Tuchel's first match in charge of England and his international managerial bow, there are still a lot of unknowns about how England will set up for this clash and it may take some time for the team to gel.

There is also the suggestion the former Chelsea and Bayern Munich boss will go down the experience route, for this first game at least, having named Jordan Henderson and Kyle Walker in his squad.

It may not be the most free-flowing game at Wembley, but it is one that the Three Lions should end up winning, as they head into this fixture with five wins from their last six assignments.

While England earned promotion to League A of the Nations League, Albania were relegated to League C after finishing below third-placed Georgia on goal difference.

Sylvinho's men are lacking confidence with just one win registered from their last five outings and it looks unlikely that they will have enough to get a positive result out of this trip.

England vs Albania Odds

Under 2.5 goals

While England should get the win to start off their World Cup qualification campaign on a positive note, this contest may not be filled with goals and backing under 2.5 looks like a smart play.

Four of Albania's last five matches have seen less than three strikes, while under 2.5 has landed in their last two away contests against Czechia and Georgia.

England were full of goals towards the end of Lee Carsley's interim spell in charge, notching 11 times in their last three games, but a more pragmatic approach is expected under Tuchel and this may not be the most entertaining meeting.

Anthony Gordon to score anytime

Newcastle forward Anthony Gordon, along with clubmates Dan Burn and Tino Livramento, will be on a massive high following Sunday's League Cup final win over Liverpool at Wembley.

While Burn and Livramento played the entire match, Gordon was forced to watch on from the sidelines due to the red card he picked up against Brighton in the FA Cup fifth round.

Although frustrated not to be involved, Gordon will be raring to go having not played since March 2nd and a quick return to the national stadium could result in a goal for him.

The 24-year-old has bagged 10 times in all competitions for the Magpies this season and he has fond memories of the last time he pulled on the Three Lions shirt, having scored in the 5-0 win over the Republic of Ireland.
