The two wins in October, against Serbia and Jordan, are expected to have a positive effect on the FIFA ranking.

These were two high-coefficient opponents, extremely important for the Reds, which is why Sylvinho and his staff also attached the utmost importance to the friendly against Jordan, since the points earned and the FIFA ranking will be decisive in determining the pots for the “play-off” draw in the World Cup qualifiers.

According to calculations, Albania is expected to gain 4 places in the next FIFA ranking, with the Reds set to occupy 62nd place.

With this ranking, Albania strengthens its position in the third pot for the “play-off”.

Not only Albania, but Kosovo too is expected to make a significant rise in the monthly FIFA ranking.

The “Dardanians” earned 4 points in their last 2 matches, against Slovenia and Sweden, Balkanweb writes.

The team coached by Franco Foda is expected to gain 7 places, moving up to 84th place—another new record for Kosovo’s national team, which, like Albania, has a strong chance of securing a ticket to the “play-off” stage of the World Cup qualifiers.
