Albania VS San Marino

Albania’s recent run of form has seen their unbeaten rate climb notably across their last six outings, after a mixed 10-game stretch that brought 4 wins and 6 losses in total. Their squad, which boasts sharp finishing efficiency even from bench players, has been surprisingly erratic of late though, dropping 2 of their past 3 fixtures with far lower competitive intensity than expected. San Marino, by contrast, have claimed just 1 draw and 9 losses across their last 10 matches, but a lesser-noted quirk of their campaign is that they perform better on the road than at home. Both sides have managed to find the back of the net in almost every recent fixture, with solid attacking output built on a steady, counter-attack focused game plan that lets them control match rhythm at their own pace. Looking at their past head-to-head records, the two sides have met 4 times in total, with Albania holding the undefeated edge of 1 win and 3 draws across those clashes. It remains to be seen if they can lock in a full three points in this upcoming tie.
