The 33rd week of Superior starts with the derby of the capital, a match which this season has been played almost mainly with the objective of getting Tirana or Partizan out of the crisis, and not for the objective of the championship title as it has been in the past.
The white and blues need a win as they are in the cold zone of the classification and success in the derby would remove them from danger. Meanwhile, the reds have forgotten how to win and every chance they have to be part of the “Final Four” and to go to Europe, passes precisely from today’s match at “Air Albania”.
In Tirana, it is noticeable that Shehi started with Xixha and Tabek from the first mine, while he chose to leave names like Kortes, Alvarez and Falaje on the bench. Meanwhile, Kirnaja has selected Kontreras as the starter, leaving Skuka, Keko, Toma and Fadairo on the bench.
