The Slovaks will rely on their rock-solid defence, which is led by Inter centre-back Milan Skriniar. Since Poland look solid at the back as well, a low-scoring affair is on the cards in Saint Petersburg. Veteran midfielder Marek Hamsik is widely expected to return to Slovakia’s starting XI after he was rested in the goalless draw with Austria. You should bear in mind that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of the previous three meetings between the two teams.
