Andorra will hope to turn around their Nations League fortunes in the 2026-27 campaign, having failed to get out of League D in their four attempts, while an automatic promotion will come for 2028-29 with League D to be removed.
They have finished bottom of their group in three of those attempts, most recently managing just one point from four matches in 2024-25, coming from a draw away at Malta, coming early in a 15-match winless run which also spanned World Cup qualifying and international friendlies.
The Tricolors did end that rut in a 2-0 friendly win over Liechtenstein in June but again lost last time out, visiting Kosovo shortly after and losing 3-0.
Koldo Alvarez's squad has lost a lot of experience since that summer victory, with Marc Pujol, Max Llovera, Josep Gomes and Marc Garcia not involved with 382 caps between them, while Marc Vales, who has over 100 caps and five international goals, will continue to captain his country.
Now hoping for a fresh start after tough Nations League and qualifying campaigns, Andorra will hope to record a first-ever win over Malta and get up and running with three points.
Malta, meanwhile, make the trip aiming to start their four-match international break with an opening three points, having fallen short in the promotion playoff in the 2024-25 Nations League.
They finished second in Group D2, managing a 1-0 win in Andorra and a goalless draw in the home reverse fixture to make it six H2H games unbeaten, only to lose 5-0 on aggregate to Luxembourg in their playoff in March.
A pair of friendlies followed in June, and the Homor lost 2-1 against Slovakia before beating Azerbaijan most recently with Joseph Mbong and Alexander Satariano on the scoresheet.
They are most notably without attacker Ryan Camenzuli and defender James Carragher for their September and October games, while Mbong and Satariano will hope to add to their goals tallies after scoring last time out in June.

Whispers predicts: Andorra 0-1 Malta
Andorra have scored just two goals in their last seven matches, both in a win over Liechtenstein having been shut out in the other six, while Malta have only scored two or more goals twice in their last eight matches, and the last two H2Hs in 2024 produced just a single goal between them. We anticipate a low-scoring game and back under 1.5 goals at 6/5 (2.20).
Andorra have not beaten their visitors in their six H2Hs since 2000 and meet a team who won away at Azerbaijan last time out in June. We see Malta having more quality and fancy them to win the game at 11/8 (2.38).
Even in their 2-0 away win over Azerbaijan, Malta did not break the deadlock until the 65th minute, and heading into their first game of a fresh competitive campaign, they may ease into the game with another slow start. 0-0 Half time score is priced at 11/10 (2.10).
> Under 1.5 goals at 6/5 (2.20) | Likelihood: Possible
