class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Boasting one of the best attackers in the world in Robert Lewandowski, Goal backs Paulo Sousa's men to get among the goals in this Euro 2020 clash
Poland and Slovakia kick off their respective Euro 2020 campaigns when they meet at Krestovsky Stadium in Saint Petersburg in Group E on Monday evening.
With Spain favourites to top the group, victory here could be key for both teams as they look to qualify for the knockout stages.
Poland vs Slovakia Latest Odds
Poland’s only win in their last five competitive fixtures came against Andorra, but Betfair Sportsbook make them 8/11 (1.73) favourites to take the points in their opener.
Slovakia are also struggling with just a single victory in their most recent six and are out at 5/1 (6.0) to come out on top in Russia.
Both nations drew their two Euro 2020 warm-up friendly matches and another stalemate is priced at 5/2 (3.50).
Poland vs Slovakia Team News
Robert Lewandowski will be hoping to carry his club form into Euro 2020, having scored 48 times for Bayern Munich in the 2020-21 campaign.
Slovakia will rely on talismanic captain Marek Hamsik for inspiration, with the IFK Gothenberg playmaker having scored 26 goals and recorded 18 assists for his country.
Poland vs Slovakia Preview
Poland’s recent results have not been encouraging but they have at least had plenty of joy in front of goal, scoring 11 times in their last six games including against both England and the Netherlands.
That rich form in the final third for Paulo Sousa’s men should carry over into this Euro 2020 clash considering the fairly leaky defence of Slovakia.
Although it would be harsh to suggest that Stefan Tarkovic’s side are poor at the back, they have kept just three clean sheets in their last 11 competitive matches, stopping only Cyprus, Scotland and the Republic of Ireland from scoring.
Poland vs Slovakia Tips and Predictions
Poland are likely to have too much going forward and Betfair Sportsbook’s price of Evens (2.0) on them scoring more than once on Monday provides good value for punters in this Euro 2020 clash.
