Andorra have not lost at home since June, Malta have not scored in their last two Nations League matches. Something has to give when the sides meet in Group D1's opening round on Thursday.
Andorra play Malta in the UEFA Nations League on Thursday, 24 September 2026, with kick-off at 17:00 BST.
Andorra's last four results split cleanly between home and away form. They beat Liechtenstein 2-0 at home on 4 June, but on the road they have taken just one point from three: a 0-0 draw at San Marino, a 2-0 defeat to Montenegro, and a 3-0 defeat to Kosovo. Koldo Álvarez remains in charge, with Marc Vales as captain. A team that scores and defends well at home but has struggled to do either away now gets a home fixture to work with.
Malta's form is harder to read. In June friendlies they lost 2-1 to Slovakia but won 2-0 away to Azerbaijan. Their most recent competitive matches were tougher: Malta lost 0-2 at home to Luxembourg, then 0-3 away to Luxembourg, in this year's Nations League group, failing to score in either. That double defeat is the most relevant evidence available for how Malta cope in this competition against nearby opposition.
Malta head coach Emilio De Leo has named a 29-player squad for the window. Birkirkara's Aleandro Garzia is out through injury, and Hibernians' Joseph Mbong is suspended for the Andorra match after picking up a ban. Ħamrun Spartans' Ryan Camenzuli returns having missed the June window through injury, and 16-year-old Hibernians midfielder Jayden Roe gets his first senior call-up. Andorra have made no such changes public before this window.
