Without defeat in the first three rounds of Group G of the preliminaries for Euro 2020, Poland and Israel are leading an important duel on Monday evening at 19:45.
Poland leads group G with a maximum scoring and 4-0 goalscorer, while Israel has a 8-3 goal after two victories and a draw. The two more fight with Austria, Slovenia and Macedonia for qualification. A draw would be a huge result for the Israeli movement in Warsaw.
In the first three qualifying rounds, Poland defeated Austria (1-0), Latvia (2-0) and Macedonia (1-0), while Israel made a show with Austria (4-2 ) and Latvia (3-0), but failed more than a draw against Slovenia (1-1). Generally, Israelis have been involved in spectacular matches lately, but no dueling with the Poles is no exception. The three direct duels, disputed from 1994 to today, ended with 2-1 (for Israel), 4-3 and 3-2 (for Poland). The most recent date was held in 2005 in a friendly game.
On their own, white-reds are very hard to beat even though they are now undergoing a reconstruction process that is not easy to carry out. Veterans such as Piszczek or Lewandowski will leave younger footballers, and Piatek (AC Milan) is the new star in the attack of lesbians. Lewandowski had a new season at Bayern Munich and will be the most dangerous footballer of his favorite. Zielinski and Milik, from Napoli, will support him permanently, so Israel has a very difficult defensive mission on Monday night.
With a hat-trick in the previous two qualifying duels, Eran Zahavi is the key player for the offensive game of the guests, but Poland has a solid defense and should easily block the road to his own goal. In 6 of the last 8 matches in the Euro, Poland has escaped without a goal, and this will be an essential mission for the host selection.
PREDICTION: Poland to win @ 1,50
