Poland
The home team is now three points at the top of the group, with a second place behind Austria's team Jerzy Brzeczek. Poland has been difficult to defeat in European Championship qualifying, suffering only one defeat of their last 12, having recorded nine victories in the process.
Poland has built their qualifying campaign on a star defensive record, because they have kept seven clean sheets in their last nine qualifying games when scoring at least two goals in four of their last six qualifying matches for the European Championship.
The home team has been tough at home of late in qualifying, as they are now unbeaten in 15 home qualifying match, after a record 12 wins in the process. Not surprisingly given their recent home record star in qualifying, Poland has been outstanding at both ends of the field in the last qualifier. They have kept clean sheets in the last four events in their home when scoring at least twice in ten of 11 games their last home qualifier.
Bayern Munich forward Robert Lewandowski, Poland has one of the best natural center-forward in the gaming world. The 31-year-old will be looking to add to his goal tally of Group G so far in this clash.
Slovenia
Slovenia will not show at Euro 2020, as they are currently third place in the group, five points behind second place Austria, which occupies the last qualifying place. Because of their poor performance in the League of Nations, the visitors did not even have the comfort of playing in the play-offs, with fourth and fifth place Northern Macedonia and Israel made the play-offs because of their appearance in the League of Nations.
Slovenia really have experienced very inconsistent qualifying campaign. The visitors started their campaign by failing to win any of their opening three games, only to record three consecutive wins over Latvia, Tuesday and Israeli opponents. However, the defeat against Northern Macedonia and Austria proved fatal to their qualification hopes. Four wins in 11 qualifying games dating back to 2015 is not a great record.
The visitors recently poor away record has been part of their downfall lately, because they have lost five of their last eight qualifiers on the road. They just failed to find the net twice in nine games last qualifiers on their trip.
Poland vs Slovenia Predictions
The Northern Macedonia Slovenia has taken on most of their last away game, and ended on a sour taste to them. They managed to keep their net clean for the entire first half, however, the last 45 minutes was a different story.
Macedonia fired two goals past the visiting defense, and only at the end of injury time was contingent visiting one of their own success. But then, they have been fighting for a lost cause.
Meanwhile, Poland took the Macedonian same squad, although with despite home advantage. With two late goals, in the 74th and 80th minutes to be exact, Poland squad scored three points on the board later.
Tuesday, the home team is the easy favorite. The reason, they are table toppers and has posted magnificent statistics in the process of ascension to the top.
Despite the presence of some phenomenal striker, defense has become an area where the team has been a revelation. So far, from their eight games, cavalry have conceded a total of only two goals, and the second came in the match-up single, Poland recorded seven clean sheets.
In addition, they have the home advantage, and importantly, thirst and quest for revenge, because only their loss in the qualifying campaign came on the road against this same opponent.
In addition, the home team have reigned supreme in h2h clashes so far, and Slovenia has never won in 15 of the last 19 overall match-ups, and in 16 of the previous 19 away from home.
Taking these observations under consideration, expect Poland to ride to a victory this match-day, and keep a clean sheet with the help of their top-performing backline.
