Romania Team News

In their last competitive match, Romania played to a 1-1 draw at home against Israel. They took the lead in the 27th minute through Denis Alibec, but the equalizer came early in the second half. The score remained unchanged until the end of the game.

Currently, they are in second place in the table with nine points, two behind Switzerland in first place. In their first five matches, they recorded two wins and three draws.

Despite moving to the Qatari Stars League, Denis Alibec remained in the Romanian national team and repaid his manager’s faith by scoring against Israel. Valentin Mihaila may have felt unfairly left on the bench again, despite his last-minute heroics in Switzerland where he scored two goals to salvage an unlikely point. The unrelated pair of Razvan Marin and Marius Marin is expected to line up in midfield along with captain Nicolae Stanciu.

Italian-based duo Dennis Man and Ionut Nedelcearu have been left out of this squad, along with goalkeepers Florin Nita and Ionut Radu. The three goalkeepers in the Romanian squad have just five caps between them, but Horatiu Moldovan appears to be the new preferred number one.

Kosovo Team News

In their last match, Kosovo played to a 2-2 draw at home against Switzerland. The visiting team took the lead twice, but the home team managed to equalize both times and secure points against the favored Swiss national team. The hosts initially went ahead in the 14th minute, and the equalizer came in the 65th minute when Milot Rashica set up Vedat Muriqi for a goal. Fourteen minutes later, Amir Rrahmani scored an own goal, and in injury time, Muriqi found the net once again, this time with an assist from Meriton Korenica.

After five matches played, Kosovo has not recorded a single win, with four draws and one loss. They currently sit in fifth place in the table with four points, two more than last-placed Andorra.

Kosovo’s captain and Napoli regular, Amir Rrahmani, will hope to quickly recover from his unfortunate own goal last weekend, as he could play a key role for the visitors. Vedat Muriqi is the key man in attack, as he has scored more than a goal every other game, taking his total to 26 in 49 caps following his two goals last weekend.

Arber Zeneli is one of the eight players from the Turkish Super Lig in the Kosovo squad, but he was surprisingly left on the bench for the Switzerland match, with manager Primoz Gliha preferring Bernard Berisha on the left wing. Zeneli, along with Milot Rashica and potential newcomers Edon Zhegrova and Florent Muslija, could all stake a claim to start to bring some creativity to the Kosovo side this time around.

Zymer Bytyqi and Elbasan Rashani are both injured, and none of the Ballkani side that reached the Europa Conference League groups for the second successive year are among the 23-man squad.
