The Albania national football team has completed its preparations in Tirana for the first Nations League match in October and has departed for Prague. Under the guidance of coach Sylvinho and his technical staff, the team held its final training session at the “House of Football,” which lasted about 1 hour and 20 minutes. The first part of the session focused on athletic conditioning, while the remainder was dedicated to ball work and tactical schemes, simulating situations expected in upcoming matches.

The atmosphere within the team is positive, and the squad is fully fit with no new injuries. Since the start of the training camp on Monday, only Myrto Uzuni and Berat Gjimshiti have been unavailable for these two matches. Uzuni has been replaced by Indrit Tuci, while Sylvinho has decided to stick with a 23-man squad.
Later in the day, a press conference will be held in the Czech Republic, followed by the team’s final training session. No major tactical changes are expected for Friday’s match, with Sylvinho set to maintain his characteristic 4-3-3 formation.
Thomas Strakosha is confirmed as the starting goalkeeper, with Mitaj and Hysaj playing as full-backs. In central defense, Kumbulla is expected to start alongside Ismajli, though Ismajli is in competition with Albian Ajeti for the spot. If Asllani is fully fit, he will join Ramadani and Laçi in midfield. Up front, Bajrami and Asani will flank Daku, who is returning as a starter.
