The home team plays its 2 nd friendly match of the year, after having faced the Republic of Ireland, in a match that ended with the final score: Andorra (1‑4) Republic of Ireland. In the last 10 home matches Andorra has a record of 1 win, 1 draw and 8 losses. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. This is a team that rarely scores first and has only opened the scoring in 2 of their last 15 matches, of these 2 they reached half-time with an advantage by 1 but never managed to maintain the advantage until the end of 90’. In 15 games played, they never managed to turn the score around in the 11 games they conceded the first goal.
The Andorran national team enters this game after a defeat, by 1-4, against the Republic of Ireland, in a preparatory game for the next official matches: the only goal of the team was stamped by Marc Vales. In this game against Gibraltar, commander Koldo should keep the team in 5-4-1 privileging the maintenance of ball possession and organized attacks by the runners. It should be noted that the Andorrans have great competence in counterattacks. All players are available for this game.
The away team plays its 2 nd friendly match of the year, after having faced Slovenia, in a match that ended with the final score: Slovenia (6‑0) Gibraltar. In the last 10 away matches Gibraltar has won 1, tied 1 and lost 8. The team has conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, so there are defensive processes that need to be improved. This is a team that rarely scores first and has only opened the scoreboard in 3 of their last 13 matches, of these 3 they reached halftime ahead by 2 and won at the end of the 90′ in 2. In 13 matches, they never managed to give the return to the scoreboard in the 9 games in which they conceded the first goal.
The selection of Gibraltar comes unmotivated for this match after the defeat, by 6-0, in the trip to Slovenia, in a preparation game for the next official matches. In this game against Andorra, coach Julio Ribas should play in a 4-3-3 formation, favoring defensive organization and counterattacking through the corridors.
