Slovakia lost to Montenegro by 32 in the first qualifying round and to Georgia by 31 in the second one. We need to point out that those results are no surprise since Slovakia aren't a good team. Albania were 40 points down to Georgia and Montenegro but that could have finished much worse. For example, they allowed 73 points in the first 20 minutes to Montenegro on Saturday and later won the second half as their opponents held back. I think Slovakia are better than Albania regardless of their shortcomings. Albania were 29 points short of Cyprus by he end of first half, 37 to Estonia, 12 to Qatar, 31 to Israel B. Slovakia played some test games home against teams of bad quality but Denmark, Switzerland and Austria are much better than Albania. Slovakia beat Denmark by 10 in the first half, Switzerland by 13. In the last test game, they trashed Austria by over 20 points in the first half.
I expect the difference in quality to get obvious today, especially since spot 3 in the group is very important because it leads into qualifiers for WC 2019. The team that comes in 4th will not play those qualifiers but instead drop into division B. Slovakia and Albania will decide on spot 3 in h2h games. Slovakia will try and win this by as many points as possible to have it as easier as possible in Albania,
