Premium Tip<\/th>Odds<\/th>Why we’re backing it<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Vedat Muriqi to score anytime<\/strong><\/td>7\/5 (William Hill<\/a>)<\/td>Muriqi is Kosovo’s talisman and the bookmakers’ clear favourite to find the net, which is no surprise given his aerial threat and his standing as the side’s main focal point. Kosovo are favourites at home and should create chances against an Israel side who have yet to win in the group, so a goal for the Fenerbahce striker looks a sound way into the game. At 7\/5 with William Hill, Muriqi to score anytime is our first Premium Tip.<\/td><\/tr>
Kosovo to win and both teams to score<\/strong><\/td>14\/5 (William Hill<\/a>)<\/td>Kosovo have taken five points from their opening four group games and are unbeaten at home in the section, but Israel have shown they can find a goal, having netted in defeat away to Austria. With both teams to score priced up as the likelier outcome, backing a Kosovo win alongside goals at both ends gives us a bigger price on our favoured result. At 14\/5 with William Hill, this is where we see the value.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How Kosovo go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kosovo have made a steady start to their Nations League campaign, sitting second in League B Group 3 with five points from their opening four matches. Franco Foda, who signed a two-year contract extension in the autumn of 2025, has his side well organised and in the promotion hunt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They opened with a 1-0 home win over the Republic of Ireland<\/a> before sharing the points with Israel in a goalless draw and taking a point from their two meetings with group leaders Austria<\/a>, a 3-1 loss in Vienna and a 1-1 home draw. That record leaves them nicely placed behind the Austrians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vedat Muriqi, now back at Fenerbahce, remains the focal point of the attack and the man Kosovo will look to for the goals that can carry them clear of Israel in Pristina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Israel go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Israel have found the going tough in this group and go into the round bottom of League B Group 3, still without a win from their four matches. Ran Ben Shimon<\/a>‘s side have picked up a couple of points but have struggled for consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A goalless draw with Kosovo earlier in the campaign was a creditable result, but defeats elsewhere in the group have left them with ground to make up. They will need to be far more clinical if they are to take anything from this trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With promotion looking a stretch, the immediate aim is simply to register a first victory and build some momentum, but doing so away to an in-form Kosovo side is a tall order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Kosovo vs Israel head-to-head<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The sides met only last month in this same group and could not be separated, playing out a 0-0 draw. Kosovo will fancy their chances of going one better on home soil this time, with Israel still looking for their first win of the campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kosovo vs Israel score prediction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kosovo are the stronger side here and have home advantage to call upon. They have made a solid start to the group, sit second and boast a genuine match-winner in Muriqi, who should relish the chance to get after an Israel defence that has struggled this autumn. Israel can take some heart from the goalless draw between the pair last month, and they have shown they can find a goal, so we are not expecting a shut-out. We expect Foda’s side to edge a competitive contest, with Anthony Eadson backing a 2-1 Kosovo victory. Score prediction: Kosovo 2-1 Israel.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
