In the last 5 meetings, Spain scored a total of 15 goals and conceded only 2 against Albania. Of Spain's 8 wins against Albania, only 1 was a friendly. The two teams have never met in the EURO finals.

Spain has qualified for the round of 16 with 6 points after 2 wins against Croatia (3-0) and Italy (1-0) while Albania has only 1 point after 2 matches against Italy and Croatia.

Although considered the "underdog" team in Group B, what Albania has shown so far is very positive. The narrow 1-2 defeat to Italy and the 2-2 draw against Croatia show that Albania is not too easy to play.

But of course, they are unlikely to cause any surprises against a Spain team that is strong in both attack and defense. Although they are not under pressure to get points, even if they do not play with maximum effort, Spain will still likely have a ninth consecutive victory over Albania.
