Kosovo came very close to qualifying for the World Cup. They finished second in their group, ahead of Slovenia and Sweden, falling just three points short of Switzerland. In March, they also won their first play-off match away against Slovakia. However, they then faced a much stronger opponent in Turkey, losing 0-1. Recently, they suffered another defeat, losing their first friendly to the Czech Republic 1-2.
Andorra remains one of the continent’s underdogs. In last year’s qualifiers, they managed only one draw, losing all other matches. In March, after a 0-2 loss to Montenegro, they held San Marino to a goalless draw. In this camp, they already lost 0-1 to Iraq. On the bright side, they beat Liechtenstein comfortably, 2-0.
Franco Foda’s side averages 1.5 goals scored per match, conceding notably less at 1.3 per game. The modest visitors, on the other hand, concede 1.4 goals for every 1.3 they score themselves.
