·

3 min read

Malta return to UEFA Nations League action tonight as the national team welcomes Andorra to the National Stadium in Ta’ Qali.

Kick-off is set for 18:00, with Malta looking to build on an unbeaten start to their League D Group 1 campaign.

Malta have four points from two matches

Emilio De Leo’s side opened the campaign with a 2-1 victory away to Andorra on 24 September before returning to Ta’ Qali for Thursday’s match against Gibraltar.

Malta had to settle for a 1-1 draw against Gibraltar despite creating several opportunities. Joseph Mbong put Malta ahead in the 53rd minute before Gibraltar’s Scott Scanlon equalised eight minutes later. Malta then struck the woodwork in stoppage time as they pushed for a winner.

Those results leave Malta with four points from their opening two Nations League matches. Andorra, meanwhile, have one point after losing 2-1 to Malta and drawing 0-0 away to Gibraltar.

After tonight, Malta will have one remaining match in the group, away to Gibraltar on 16 November.
