Tonight at 8:45 PM, the Albanian National Football Team will begin its journey towards its dream of qualifying for the World Cup, facing England at the famous Wembley Stadium.

Although Albania has important defensive shortages, such as Elseid Hysaj and Mario Mitaj, coach Sylvinho has expressed confidence that his boys can snatch a positive result against coach Tuchel's "Three Lions".

While the formation still remains uncertain, especially for defense and attack, the Albanian Football Association (AFH) has announced that the national team will play in black jerseys. This decision was made to avoid color confusion, as England usually plays in white jerseys at home, while Albania has white as their second uniform.

The black jersey has brought luck in the past for the national team, as it has achieved one of the most historic moments: in Yerevan, where the Rossoneri under coach De Biasi secured qualification for the first time in the European Championship, after a 1-3 victory over Armenia. Likewise, it has brought a good performance at Euro 2024, where Albania managed to draw 1-1 with Croatia.
