“There are strong expectations to see how many problems we can create for Italy and how important it’ll be to continue our World Cup dream,” De Biasi told Rai Sport.

It is the first competitive meeting between these nations after a 1-0 Italy friendly win in November 2014.

Albania and Italy are divided only by the Adriatic Sea and there are many who have made that move permanent.

“Our fans feel great joy at facing their ‘second’ Nazionale. I hope for a wonderful game on the field and a friendly atmosphere off it.”
