Prediction: 1-0
Chile
Stadio Ennio Tardini will host Friday’s friendly between Albania and Chile, the two teams who meet for the first time on the international stage. The Albanians did remarkably well to qualify for the EURO 2024 finals, with the team clinching top position in Group E and, no doubt, they are brimming with confidence ahead of the trip to Parma. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Fulham attacker Armando Broja, who has netted four goals in 17 appearances for the national team, with the likes of Sokol Cikalleshi (Konyaspor), Ivan Balliu (Rayo Vallecano) and Mytro Uzuni (Granada) making the cut as well.
La Roja, on the other hand, have been struggling in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, with the team netting only five points in the process from possible 18. As all Diego Valdes, Erick Pulgar, Carlos Palacios, and Javier Altamirano have been ruled out with injuries, we predict that Sylvinho’s men are going to emerge triumphant in Friday’s warm-up game.

Highlighted Team (Albania):
The Albanian national football team has represented the country on international stage since 1946, and it is interesting to note that Albania was one of the founding members of UEFA back in 1954. The Eagles have enjoyed very little success in the 20th century, but they managed to show some improvement at the turn of the century and eventually secured their first ever appearance at a major tournament.
Albania qualified for the Euro 2016 finals as they came second in their qualifying group behind Portugal, taking 14 points from 8 matches, with Italian coach Gianni De Biasi at the helm. The Eagles have never qualified for the World Cup finals in 11 attempts, winning mere 14 of 94 World Cup qualifiers.
Former Lazio defender Lorik Cana has worn the captain’s armband over the last few years and he is Albania’s most capped player, while former Chievo forward Erjon Bogdani still holds the record for most goals for the national team, with 18 strikes in 74 appearances.
