Albania
Albania won 0-1 in their opening match against a weak Andorra.
Albania wants to qualify for the first time in its history to a World Cup, although it won’t be easy in a group with rivals such as England, Poland and Hungary.
Albania got the promotion to the League B in the last Nations League edition, so they are likely to play more safely with themselves in the World Cup qualifiers.
England
The English beat San Marino 5-0 without having to work hard in their last match.
Once again this year England sounds like one of the top teams to win the World Cup, but first, they must qualify.
The English, as the creators of football, have extra pressure from their fans in every tournament to win, but the truth is that the British team has gone from failure to failure in every tournament they have played since 1966 when they won their only World Cup.
