Kosovo's manager Bernard Challandes has joked the only way to stop Raheem Sterling is to break his legs.
Sterling ran riot against the team ranked 114th in FIFA's world rankings when the teams last met in September, scoring once and providing two assists in a man of the match display.
The 24-year-old is set to feature in England's last qualifying match for Euro 2020 , having missed the win over Montenegro due to his part in a row with teammate Joe Gomez.
Sunday's match in Pristina City is effectively a dead rubber, with England already through, and Kosovo not able to qualify, but Challandes is still determined to keep Sterling under wraps.
After comparing Sterling to players of Kosovo's last opponents Czech Republic, he added: "It's incredible. Only as a team we can find a not so bad solution [to stop him]. Or we break his legs, but we are too nice."
Sterling will be hopeful of a repeat performance against the European minnows, not least to put the episode with Gomez behind him.
Gareth Southgate decided to make Sterling unavailable for the Montenegro clash after he was embroiled in an argument with Gomez in the canteen at England's St.Georges Park training base on Monday.
Gomez has since withdrawn from the squad for the clash with Kosovo over a knee injury picked up in training, which follows him being booed by his own fans against Montenegro.
Sterling defended his teammate after the match, posting on Twitter : "To all the England fans, I wanted to leave things at it was but tonight I have to speak again: it was hard for me to see my team mate get booed for something that was my fault.
"Joe hasn’t done anything wrong & for me to see someone who keeps his head down and work hard..especially after a difficult week for him to be booed when he came on tonight was wrong.
"I’ve taken full responsibility and accepted the consequence. I felt as though I had to say this get home safe every one."
