N.B. Double Suggestions are posted when the fixture choice is poor and the confidence levels aren't high enough for an official "Premium Double".
Italy vs Albania Betting Tip Preview:Normally you wouldn't back a fixture containing Italy to contain 2 or more goals because historically Italy have had a very defensive mentality and have often been very happy with 1-0 wins. However recent performances have indicated that this current Italy set-up is more goal hungry than previous Italy teams. So far in the World Cup Qualifiers Italy have managed 11 goals in 4 games, which is just below 3 goals per game on average, and if you add to that the 4 goals they have conceded over 3 of the 4 games, then on average their qualifying games have contained 3.8 goals. On top of that, each of their 4 games in this campaign so far have contained 2 or more goals, which would be enough for our selection tonight. Their opponents (Albania) games actually have had the lowest average number of goals in the group with 2.5, however all 4 games have still contained 2 or more goals, making the chances of 2 or more goals pretty high in this fixture tonight. It wouldn't surprise me if Italy alone score at least 2 goals, as other than when they played Spain, they have scored 3 or more goals against all other opponents in this group so far.
Kosovo vs Iceland Betting Tip Preview:Our second selection (Asian handicap -1 Iceland) should be a very achievable outcome considering Kosovo are a newly formed team and they are up against a very useful and established Iceland side who contain some real quality like Gylfi Sigurdsson. Kosovo's qualifying campaign got off to a decent start with a 1-1 draw against Finland, however since that match they have failed to score in their next 3 games, and have conceded a massive 11 goals in the process. The difficult reality of the task ahead for Kosovo is there for everyone to see, and they are likely to struggle in most games in this group, and with Iceland currently just outside the top two positions, this is a must win game for them. With the Ukraine playing leaders Croatia tonight, this may well present Iceland with an opportunity to move into 2nd place provided they beat Kosovo, so although Iceland aren't the strongest side and they do play slightly defensive football, they will have to attack this game as 3 points is essential tonight.
