Albanian Football Federation opens ticket sales for World Cup qualifier vs. Latvia
The Albanian Football Federation on Wednesday launched online sales for tickets to the World Cup 2026 qualifier against Latvia on September 9 at “Air Albania” Stadium. Fans can now select their exact seat via ebileta.al, with prices ranging from 1,000 to 20,000 lek.
Why is this important: About 4,400 seats—20% of the stadium—will remain closed under FIFA sanctions for the June match incidents against Serbia. After a 1–1 draw in Riga, Albania needs a home win to bolster its five points from four games and strengthen its World Cup qualification bid.
Context: Five days before hosting Latvia, the national team will play a friendly in Gibraltar. The new online system offers real-time seat maps and instant e-ticket delivery—the first-time supporters can choose individual seats for a home qualifier.
Next steps: Tickets are on sale now at ebileta.al until match day. The federation urges fans to purchase early due to limited availability in restricted sectors.
