Kosovar legend, Ardian Kozniku: Favorite Croatians on paper, Albania can be a surprise

The Kosovar legend, Ardian Koznik, who lives and works in Croatia as he is also a former player of the Croatian national team, spoke on the eve of the Croatia-Albania challenge.

Among other things, Koznik said to the Croatian media: "It will be interesting, because both national teams lost in the first round. I expect an open match, because both national teams will go for victory. 

Quality and experience are on Croatia's side. In addition, Croatian players, at least 80% of them, have been playing together for years. And that's why I think they "chewed" the defeat against Spain more easily.

I repeat, the quality, individual and team, is on Croatia's side, but they must definitely be careful against Albania. Not to mention the names, they are strong as a collective.

It's true, they don't have class players in attack, like Petkovic, Perisic, Kramaric, but they will still intercept at the beginning of the chances from the counter attack. They are a balanced team, everyone can score a goal, even though Sokol Cikalleshi and Myrto Uzuni have already left.

Perhaps the most dangerous is Manaj, but overall, Croatia is much better on paper. Albanians have nothing to lose in this championship and can win a lot.

Well, they lost to Italy, but they were not ashamed. Nobody blames them for that defeat. And also, they will go into the match against Croatia relieved because they know that Croatia is the favorite on paper. And this is the worst for Croatia, because the Albanians can be a surprise".
