Corners Prediction

Under 8.5 Corners

The 8.5 Total Corners line has not been covered in ten consecutive Albania home matches, while there has been an average of 7.80 corners in the previous five away games involving Latvia. The corners tally could be lower than the line implies and that leads us to a wager at a price of 1.96.
