Matchday: Malta Faces Eswatini In International Friendly Match At National Stadium

It's matchday for the Malta National Team, which faces Eswatini in an international friendly match at the National Stadium in Ta' Qali, in preparation for the crucial UEFA Nations League clash against Gibraltar away from home.

Malta are currently on a five-match unbeaten run, securing two friendly match victories and three UEFA Nations League wins, with which Emilio De Leo's men are currently on top of their respective Nations League group.

During the pre-match press conference, Coach Emilio De Leo argued that “we have two games in front of us and the boys know that we have to face both with the same determination. We have to maintain a winning mentality, express our qualities and get results. That has to be our approach.”

Goalkeeper James Sissons remarked that “the team prepares in the same way, whether it is Eswatini or any other team. We need to have the same mindset and show what we can do.”

Malta face Eswatini on Thursday, 12 November, with kick-off at 18:30 at the National Stadium, before travelling to Gibraltar for their final UEFA Nations League fixture on Monday, 16 November.
