Prediction: 2-1
Armenia
Kosovo will look to extend their winning run to four games when they take on Armenia on Friday evening. Kosovo look unstoppable at the moment, but boss Franco Coda must warn his men against complacency. The bad news for the hosts is that Besiktas ace Milot Rashica has been ruled out with injury as well as Mallorca striker Vedat Muriqi.
The Armenians, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems in the Nations League double-header with Georgia, conceding nine goals in the process. Even though Kosovo head into Friday’s friendly without aforementioned duo, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home side. In their last meeting in a warm-up game, Kosovo defeated Armenia 1-0, with Milot Rashica scoring the only goal of the match. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Krasnodar midfielder Eduard Spertsyan, who has netted six goals in 32 appearances for the national team.
Highlighted Player (Milot Rashica):
Milot Rashica is a Kosovo Albanian player who was born on June 28, 1996 in Vucitrn, FR Yugoslavia. Rashica is a product of FC Vushtrria football academy and he continued playing for the Ferki Aliu Stadium outfit at senior level.
Milot Rashica is a winger, but he is used as an attacking midfielder as well and it has to be noted that his preferred foot is right. Nowadays, the Albanian footballer plays for Vitesse in Dutch Eredivisie and he has established himself as a first-team regular at the club.
Milot Rashica made his Vitesse debut on July 30, 2015, coming as a substitute for Serbia international Uros Djurdjevic in a 3-0 defeat to Southampton in the Europa League qualifiers. Speaking of his Eredivisie debut, Rashica played his first match for Vitesse in the Dutch elite division on August 9, 2015 in a 1-1 draw with Willem II. The Vitesse footballer has six caps for Albania U21 team, but he represents Kosovo at senior level.
Highlighted Team (Armenia):
Armenia footballers played for Soviet Union national football team until 1991, when the country declared independence. The Football Federation of Armenia was founded the following year and they quickly established relations with both FIFA (1992) and UEFA (1993).
Despite the fact that Manchester United ace Henrikh Mkhitaryan plays for the Armenia national football team, the Havakakan have yet to qualify for the finals of a major tournament. Mkhitaryan is undisputedly the team’s most famous footballer, but we should mention former Ajax striker Edgar Manucharyan as well, who is in the twighlight of his career. Armenia played their first international game against Moldova in October, 1992 and it has to be noted that they played out a goalless draw with the former Soviet republic.
The Armenians have slim chances of qualifying for the FIFA World cup 2018 finals, but they did well to beat Montenegro in the process. Armenia footballers wear red shirts and red shorts when playing at home ground (Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium), while the colour of their away kits is white.
