Sunday’s final 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier has little riding on it, but both Albania and England will be aiming to finish the calendar year with victory in Tirana on Sunday.
England have already secured their place at next summer’s tournament, becoming the first European team to do so following their 5–0 demolition of Latvia last month. They have won all seven of their qualifiers under Thomas Tuchel, scoring 20 and conceding zero as they’ve swept their opponents aside.
