Match Details

Date: 14th June 2021 (IND)

Time: 9:30 pm (IST)

Venue: Saint-Petersburg Stadium, Saint Petersburg

TV Channel: Sony Ten 2 SD & HD/SonyLIV, JioTV

Key players:

Poland: Poland's hopes rest largely on the shoulders of their legendary forward Robert Lewandowski who is coming off the back of a 48-goal season for club side Bayern Munich. The 32-year-old skipper will be desperate to lead from the front and he could be the deciding factor in this tie.

Slovakia: For Slovakia, the player to look out for is definitely skipper Marek Hamsik. The Napoli legend currently plies his trade in China, however, at the international stage he still is their best player. No one has scored more goals than him in the squad and the Slovaks will be counting on his powerful presence to guide them through to the knockout stage.

Head to Head:

Poland wins: 3

Draws: 1

Slovakia wins: 4

Last meeting: Poland 0-2 Slovakia

Poland possesses more goals up-front with Lewandowski leading the line but Slovakia also have some excellent attacking midfielders. As of now, Poland look a bit favourite but the game could go right down to the wire in St. Petersburg.
