Betting on Czech Republic
The last time the Czech Republic played an official match was on September 27, 2022, loosing 2-1 away to Switzerland in the final round of the Nations League. And if we go back a little further, the previous one had also been a defeat after a resounding 0-4 home defeat against Portugal in the same competition.
History, however, gives the local team a boost of confidence ahead of this match. From 1996 to the present, it has taken part in all editions of the European Championship, with its best performance being that one, when it reached the final and lost 2-1 to Germany at Wembley.
As far as the last edition is concerned, its performance was discreet. They reached the quarterfinals with a final record of two wins, one draw and two defeats, the last of which was a 1-2 loss to Denmark.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Tomáš Vaclík; Vladimír Coufal, Ondřej Kúdela, David Zima, Václav Jemelka; Lukáš Kalvach, Tomáš Souček; Václav Černý, Antonín Barák, Adam Vlkanova; Patrik Schick.
Betting on Poland
The Polish national team participated in the last World Cup and reached the round of 16. In the group stage, they drew goalless with Mexico, defeated Saudi Arabia 2-0 and lost 2-0 to eventual champions Argentina. Curiously, that record was enough to qualify for the next phase, but that was the end of the road, as they had to face the other Qatar 2022 finalist, France, to whom they lost 3-1.
Its first participation in the European Championship was in the 2008 edition and since then it has never missed another event, with its best performance coming in the 2016 edition when it reached the quarterfinals.
Probable lineup (4-1-4-1): Wojciech Szczęsny; Matty Cash, Kamil Glik, Jakub Kiwior, Bartosz Bereszyński; Grzegorz Krychowiak; Jakub Kamiński, Piotr Zieliński, Sebastian Szymański, Przemysław Frankowski; Robert Lewandowski.
JefeBet Prediction
Of the last five meetings, Czech Republic won two and Poland three. The last precedent dates back to November 2018, when the Czech national team won 1-0 for an international friendly. Taking everything into account, at JefeBet we believe that this time the match will end in a draw.
Prediction: Moneyline Tie (CZE 1-1 POL).
