Before Kosovo's FIFA World Cup 2022 qualifying fixture against Greece on Monday, they will warm up with a friendly game against Jordan at the Pristina City Stadium on Wednesday.

Jordan were eliminated from World Cup qualifiers in June but will be playing two games this month, including another away game at Belarus on Tuesday.

Kosovo are also out of contention for a spot in the World Cup finals so this game might end up being a formality for both sides.
