Serbia team coach Dragan Stojković addressed the public the day before the match against Albania.

Speaking about expectations from the match, Stojković stressed that "it is impossible for the match to be boring", adding that he is calm and that he expects his players to be calm as well.

He also said that there was no dilemma about the lineup that would take the field and commented on the whistles that were heard at the Rajko Mitic Stadium during the match against England.

"They can't surprise us with the starting lineup, we know the two changes they will have, but I don't think they will change anything fundamentally. There will be a rotation due to injuries, but they will not change the system; they will play with four defenders in the back line, that's for sure," said Stojkovic.

"When it's an important match like this, everyone tries to show the quality they have and put it in the foreground. Football is a living game and you can never predict what can happen. God forbid a red card... Then everything goes down the drain. We will do everything to present Serbia in the right light."

"We want to have a maximum performance in these October qualifying matches. We will do everything to achieve it. Three points against Albania and three points in Andorra. We want to make the nation happy with these results, and that's what we are thinking about. Of course you can expect an offensive game from us."
