ALB Vs FRA Dream11 Team, Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: France look to nail down top position in the group and bring the curtains down on their journey in maverick solace
Sitting atop of Group H ahead of today’s culminating encounter, for France the road to next year’s Euro 202 has been quite the smooth ride numbers tell. The side might be in first place but their wins have been far from convincing with the team needing to scrape through some tedious encounters to make it this far.
And despite currently reigning supreme in their group with the seven wins from nine matches which see them the two points above second placed Turkey, the French will be far from happy with the brand of football they have doled out. It’s one completely unbecoming of a team who are the current world cup holders, a drab set of results which was emphasises in their most recent outing Moldova who they just about managed to scram by 2-1.
However, all things said and done, what matters at the end of the day is the position which the side occupy, one they’ll be looking to make their own come today. With Turkey faltering in their recent set of fixtures, losing the one match to allow France to displace them and move into first place, the French know even a draw will suffice today to see them continue to occupy top place at the ed of the qualifiers.
Elsewhere for Kosovo, things have been bleak, tepid and remorse filled with the side’s recklessness ending up being their demise. With just the four wins from nine matches, their drab showings mean ther qualification journey has come to an end but having drawn with Andorra 2-2 in their last outing, the side will be looking to dole out something similar and bring an end to a sorry journey with a resounding result.
