After sharing the spoils with Lewandowski-less Poland, Russia will be looking to return to winning ways when they take on Bulgaria in yet another warm-up game. Stanislav Cherchesov’s troops are eager to impress in their last friendly before the EURO 2020 finals, and we are positive that the experienced tactician is going to field the best possible side this time out. Both Fernandes and Cheryshev are pushing for a start, while Zenit attacker Dzyuba should continue to lead the line for the hosts.
The Bulgarians, on the other hand, are on a six-match winless run in all competitions ahead of the trip to Moscow. Anyhow, Russia want this win more than Bulgaria, and we predict that the hosts are going to prove their worth on the field. In their last meeting in a friendly Russia defeated Bulgaria 1-0 and we predict that the history is going to repeat itself.
Wales play host to Albania at their Cardiff City Stadium in what is expected to be an interesting game. Wales suffered an expected 3-0 loss to France on Wednesday evening, but they are surely capable of matching Albania at home ground. Talented defender Neco Williams is banned for the hosts, while Juventus ace Aaron Ramsey is likely to return to the starting XI. As always, a man to watch in the home team will be Tottenham attacker Gareth Bale.
Unlike Wales, Albania will not take part at the upcoming European Championship finals. The Dragons want this win more than the Albanians, and we are positive that the hosts are going to prove their worth in their last warm-up game before EURO 2020. Konyaspor attacker Sokol Cikalleshi, who has netted 10 goals in 39 appearances for the national team, is widely expected to lead the line for the visitors.
