List for next matches:

Portierë: Thomas Strakosha, Elhan Kastrati, Mario Dajsinani

Mbrojtës: Elseid Hysaj, Ivan Balliu, Mario Mitaj, Naser Aliji, Marash Kumbulla, Adrian Bajrami, Berat Gjimshiti, Arlind Ajeti

Mesfushorë: Ylber Ramadani, Juljan Shehu, Kristjan Asllani, Medon Berisha, Qazim Laçi, Adrion Pajaziti, Nedim Bajrami, Arbër Hoxha, Ernest Muçi, Jasir Asani

Sulmues: Armando Broja, Myrto Uzuni, Rey Manaj, Mirlind Daku


Still see a bunch of amateurs like Manaj and Aliji but it is what it is. I would like to see Bajrami get a chance at center back even if Ajeti has generally been solid for the national team. Give Medon Berisha a chance too, Juljan Shehu is not the present nor the future. Manaj getting called up again is a joke.

Another thing is why isn't Anis Mehmeti not getting a chance? He's probably the best winger we have (Muci included)? Does he really think Jasir Asani or Arber Hoxha are better? Albania really over complicates player selections

Very useful preparation for the Serbia game.

Happy to see Hysaj back.

In the recent games Balliu showed how valuable Hysaj is. As a defensive fullback Hysaj is much superior and stable. Balliu is restricted from attacking anyway so there is no point of him playing. Plus he has lost his place at Rayo.

Player to score (anytime)
Aleksandar Mitrovic +130
Dusan Vlahovic +140
Aleksandar Katai +210
Luka Jovic +225
Myrto Uzuni +225
Rey Manaj +225
Nikola Stulic +300
Lazar Samardzic +333
Mirlind Daku +333
Ernest Muci +350
Andrija Zivkovic +400
Jasir Asani +400
Nedim Bajrami +400
Sasa Lukic +400
Stefan Mitrovic +400
Armando Broja +450
Bet365

Aleksandar Mitrovic (+130) tops the probable scorers list for this match!

Bet365 suggests Myrto Uzuni (+225) and Sugar Ray Manaj (+225) represent Albania’s best chance at scoring a goal here. Armando Broja (+450) fell off big time..

Slavic opponent like Serbia will come to play! From kickoff, the visitors will be looking to score goals and bring the game to us!

Shaping up to be a good one in Tirana!

The qualification Pots were spot on. England Pot 1, Serbia Pot 2, Albania Pot 3. We made Pot 2 for Euro 2024, but that was a one-off.

We overperformed when we beat Czechs/Polaks.

They are at the same level as Czechs/Poland but you can argue those teams are better. Poland because at the very least they have a Lewa and Czechs because of their relentless high press and style of play.

When it comes to team sports, Albania is no rival for Serbia. Serbia’s rivals are the best countries in the world. Per capita, they are one of the best producers of talent across the globe!

Serbia is a regular participant at the World Cup and a Serbian team (Red Star) won the European Cup. They have a long history of success in this sport!

For Albania, a win against Serbia is certainly an upset and would go down as one of the biggest wins in our history. For Serbia, beating Albania is an expected result. Just another day at the office for them..

That being said, opening odds suggested positive result for home around 3 of 5 times. Odds have since moved in favour of Serbia but still suggesting positive result roughly 54% of the time for home.
This is a match like no others, no one would've picked Albania to beat Greece in 2004.
