The penultimate week of the Premier League has delivered important verdicts for both survival and European competition. The focus of this final phase has been the fight to avoid relegation, and today's results seem to have largely clarified the fates of the teams.
Flamurtari has sealed a disappointing season, officially falling to the First Category just a year after returning to the elite. The draw against Teuta has removed any chance of survival for the Vlora team, which holds the last place with 39 points, three less than Teuta and Vora. Since these two teams have the advantage in direct matches, Flamurtari can no longer overtake them in the final week.
On the other hand, Tirana has managed to avoid direct relegation, taking an important victory over Vllaznia. The white and blues led by Orges Shehi have had a difficult season full of problems, but according to current calculations, the maximum that can happen to them is to finish in eighth place, which leads to the "play-out". Tirana has an advantage in direct matches against Bylis, which favors them in the standings.
However, the white and blue team will need a win against Elbasan in the final week to secure seventh place. In the event of a false step and a victory for Vora, the Vora team would benefit from the advantage in direct confrontations.
The situation remains delicate for Teuta, which has complicated its positions in recent weeks. The team from Durrës needs a victory over Egnatia at "Niko Dovana" to avoid danger.
Meanwhile, at the top of the standings, Partizan has finally lost the opportunity to secure participation in Europe, ending a season with fluctuations and below expectations.
The four teams that will represent Albania in European competitions have already been determined. Elbasan, Vllaznia, Egnatia and Dinamo have officially secured a place in Europe. The Albanian Cup final will be played between Egnatia and Dinamo, which means that the fourth place in the championship will also automatically qualify for Europe.
