Goal Statistics

England's forwards have been superb of late, finding the net twice or more in 3 consecutive World Cup Qualifying Europe matches. A PG of 2.7 suggests that run should continue on Friday evening.

A truly dreadful PG of just 0.5 should cause concerns for Albania fans, as should a 5 World Cup Qualifying Europe games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
