Therefore, Milos Veljkovic is likely to start in the center of the defense, while Nemanja Gudelj is expected to return to midfield. In attack, Dusan Vlahovic will remain the main striker for the home team.

Striker Rey Manaj, who has scored 10 goals for the national team and is currently the top scorer, will continue to lead the attack, while Qazim Laci is expected to remain in midfield.
Despite a less-than-impressive start to the 2025-26 season with Burnley, striker Armando Broja (24 years old) was still trusted to start in the away match in Serbia.

Nhận định bóng đá Serbia vs Albania mới nhất
Serbia vừa trải qua cú sốc lớn khi bị tuyển Anh đánh bại với tỷ số 0-5, khiến hy vọng cạnh tranh ngôi đầu bảng K của họ bị giáng một đòn nặng nề.
Dù vậy, chiến dịch vòng loại World Cup 2026 của Serbia nhìn chung vẫn khá ổn định, với hai chiến thắng, một trận hòa và một thất bại sau bốn lượt đấu, giành được bảy điểm và hiện xếp thứ ba, kém đội nhì bảng Albania đúng một điểm.
Thầy trò HLV Dragan Stojkovic khởi đầu bảng đấu bằng trận hòa 0-0 với chính Albania hồi tháng 6, sau đó thắng Andorra và Latvia trước khi nhận thất bại nặng nề trước Anh.
Serbia từng góp mặt ở ba trong bốn kỳ World Cup gần nhất, nhưng đều dừng bước ngay vòng bảng, trong đó có World Cup 2022. Tại Euro 2024, họ cũng không thể vượt qua vòng đấu đầu tiên.
The two teams have met three times in the past, with each side winning once and drawing once. The last time Serbia beat Albania was in the Euro 2016 qualifiers in October 2015.
On the other side, Albania just won 1-0 against Latvia on September 9th, thanks to a successful penalty by Kristjan Asllani in the first half.
This result propelled coach Sylvinho's team to second place in Group K, with a record of two wins, two draws, and one loss after five matches, totaling eight points.
Albania boasts a solid defense, having conceded only three goals since the start of the campaign, but their attack has struggled, having scored only five goals so far.
This team has never participated in a World Cup, so they are pursuing a historic dream. However, Albania has also shown significant progress, having appeared in two of the last three European Championships (2016 and 2024), although they were eliminated in the group stage both times.
