Prediction: 1-0
Malta
Andorra will aim to kick off their Nations League campaign in style when they face Malta on Tuesday. Koldo Alvarez’s men are known for their solid defense, especially at home, and they’ll be encouraged by the fact that they have no fresh injury concerns heading into the match. The team’s physical style and disciplined approach could cause trouble for a Malta side that struggled in a 2-0 loss to Moldova last time out.
Despite Malta’s lackluster performance, there may be a shakeup in their lineup, with both Montebello and Zammit Lonardelli likely to get their chances in the starting eleven. However, Malta’s issues in breaking down compact defenses and their poor away form raise concerns about their ability to pick up points in Andorra la Vella. With Andorra’s home advantage and Malta’s recent struggles, the hosts are in a good position to secure a vital win in their Nations League campaign.
Highlighted Team (Andorra):
Andorra national football team played their first official game in 1996, with the team suffering a 6-1 loss to Estonia. The Tricolours have been participating in both European Championship qualifiers and World Cup qualifiers since 2000, but they have yet to make it to the finals of the major tournament.
Andorra have established themselves as a cannon fodder for their rivals, but it has to be noted that they did well to beat Macedonia in the 2006 World Cup qualifier (1-0). The Andorrans play their home games at Estadio Nacional in Andorra la Vella and you should bear in mind that they suffered their biggest defeat in an official match on June 4, 2005 when they were outclassed by Czech Republic in Liberec.
Speaking of their biggest win, the minnows recorded a 2-0 victory over Belarus in a friendly game in Aixovall. The likes of Ildefons Lima and Oscar Sonejee are the most notable footballers who represented Andorra on the international stage.
