Aviva Stadium in Dublin will serve as the host for the match between Poland and Slovakia in the European Championship on 14th June 2021 at 21:30 IST. The odds are clearly in favor of the Polish side to win the match and start on a winning note.

Teams Status

Poland

Poland are currently ranked in the 21st position of the FIFA team rankings. They finished at the top of their European Championship qualification group consisting of Austria, North Macedonia, Slovenia, Israel and Latvia. They had won eight matches, drawn one and lost just one match in the ten matches that they played, accumulating 25 points in the process. They finished as many as six points clear of trailing Austria. They had the best away record in the league as they won 80% of their matches on the road. In the ten matches, they have scored 18 goals and have conceded just five goals. As usual, the Bayern striker Robert Lewandowski top-scored for Poland with as many as six goals and also had two assists to his name. Kamil Grosicki led the assists list for Poland with three assists. The contributions from Lewandowski, Milik and Zielinski could prove vital in Poland’s European stint.

Slovakia

Slovakia is 36th ranked in the FIFA rankings. Despite finishing in the third position of a group led by Croatia and Wales, they made it to Europe’s grand stage after beating Ireland and Northern Ireland in the qualifier playoffs. They finished just one point behind Wales after winning four matches, drawing one and losing three matches. But they had the best away record in the group as they were the only team to win two matches on the road. They scored the second highest number of goals with 13 goals and conceded 11 goals. Out of the 13 goals, nine goals were scored by just three players as Marek Hamsik, Juraj Kucka and Robert Bozenik chipped in with three goals each. They have a decent enough squad to upset any team in Europe, but for that, they need the likes of Marek Hamsik, Robert Mak, Juraj Kucka and Milan Skriniar to chip in with vital performances.

What Do the Sportsbooks Say?

According to the Betway sportsbook, Poland are placed at 1.80, Slovakia are placed at 5.25 and the draw is at 3.20 odds.

Tipster’s Angle

Despite the fact that Poland are the favorites, Slovakia has a slight edge over them by considering the head to head record as they won three of the last four matches. Apart from that, this also could be a low scoring encounter.

Tip: Both Teams To Score – No @ 1.66

In the last ten matches that Poland had played across competitions, both teams failed to score in five of those matches. Also, four of the last seven matches that Poland played at home had either team keeping a clean sheet. In the last ten matches that Slovakia played across competitions, clean sheets were kept in five of those matches as well. Apart from that, four of the last five away matches that Slovakia had played had both teams not scoring in them. In the last four head to head matches, both teams failed to score in three of those matches. So, by considering these facts, it is very likely that any one team could keep a clean sheet at 1.66 odds available at the Dafabet sportsbook.

Tip: Slovakia Win or Draw @ 1.89

In the last four head to head matches, Slovakia has won three matches, while Poland has just won one match. Both Poland and Slovakia are in a similar kind of form recently. Poland has won three, lost three and drew four matches in the last ten matches that they played across competitions. Slovakia on the other hand have also won three, lost three and drew four matches from their last ten matches. Poland have won just three and Slovakia just lost three in their respective last ten matches, apart from these, the remaining matches are in favor of Slovakia. So, it is very likely that they could salvage at least a draw at 1.89 odds available at the Dafabet sportsbook.

Conclusion

The second spot is up for the taking and there could be a three way battle among Poland, Slovakia and Sweden. Currently, Sweden are looking like a team that could finish in the second position but Slovakia are the dark horses this season and could cause a major upset.
