The Kosovo national team will play two friendly matches during the month of June, as part of preparations for the new edition of the Nations League that starts in September, where it will compete in League B.
The Dardanelles will first face the Czech National Team on May 31st at the "Epet Arena" stadium in Prague.
This match is expected to be an important test for the team led by coach Franco Foda, facing a quality European opponent.
The Czech Republic secured their place in the 2026 World Cup after defeating Denmark on penalties in the European play-offs, returning to the World Cup for the first time since 2006.
The Czechs are currently ranked 41st in the FIFA rankings.
The Dardanians have faced the Czech Republic twice so far, both in the framework of the European 2020 qualifiers.
In the first match on September 7, 2019, they won at "Fadil Vokrri", 2:1, while in the return match in Plzen, they suffered a loss also 2:1, on November 14, 2019.
Meanwhile, Kosovo will play its second friendly match on June 7, against Andorra, at the "Fadil Vokrri" stadium in Pristina.
The Dardanians have also faced Andorra twice in the Euro 2024 qualifiers. They drew in Pristina (1:1) and won in Andorra La Vella (3:0).
These two friendlies will serve the technical staff to continue building the team for the upcoming competitive matches in League B, where Kosovo is part of Group B3 with Austria, Israel and Ireland.
The Dardanians will gather on May 27th. /Express newspaper
