Outright Odds: a hundred twenty five/1
Team A Winners: 4/1
Next a disastrous 2002 Planet Cup marketing campaign during which mentor Jerzy Engel talked up his sides prospective clients only for them to be beaten 2-0 by South Korea and hammered four-0 by Portugal, Poland will probably be keen to recreate their previous Planet Cup glories.
Less than coach Pawel Janas, Poland manufactured quick get the job done in their qualifying group, enjoying residence and absent victories from Austria, Azerbaijan, Northern Ireland and Wales. Two slim 2-1 defeats to England prevented a clear sweep but eight wins outside of ten matches was more than enough to cement their put from the finals.
In qualifying they proved their ability to beat ordinary groups convincingly and they'll must repeat this about the grand stage Should they be to repeat their glorious strategies of 1974 and 1982 wherein they concluded 3rd. Nevertheless, Additionally they should confirm they've got what it will take to defeat the much better sides because they did in 1974, when Argentina, Italy, Sweden and Yugoslavia were being dispatched before beating Brazil to assert 3rd spot.
They undoubtedly possess the firepower to take action and Polands primary strength lies in attack. Throughout qualifying they cracked in 27 goals, notably the eight-0 thrashing of Azerbaijan and scored not less than at the time in all ten in their qualifying matches. Far more importantly, they scored ten much more than team winners England managed for all their multi-million pounds really worth of strikers and only a few sides scored extra targets than the Poles for the duration of the eu qualifying marketing campaign.
Elche striker Tomasz 온라인바카라 Frankowski, nicknamed The Goals Hunter and Celtic forward Maciej Zurawski fired in fourteen plans involving them for the duration of qualifying when Southamptons Grzegorz Rasiak is also in rivalry.
Poland may also be a aspect that isn't wanting knowledge. The anticipated starting line-up has a median age of about thirty when Jacek Krzynowek, Jamil Kosowski and Radolsaw Kaluzny have all played in the German Bundesliga. Four yrs ago the workforce struggled to manage Along with the weather in Korea and Japan but will have no this kind of issues this time when generating the brief trip over the border into Germany.
Their only actual weak spot is at the back again where by they have got formulated a routine of conceding gentle goals that will not go unpunished if they deal with a workforce in scientific mood.
Proposed Guess:
Poland have obtained a favourable attract by which they must arguably conquer both of those Ecuador and Costa Rica While using the local derby fixture in opposition to Germany sandwiched between. The dismal failure of four several years back signifies the Poles cannot be backed confidently to get Team A, Despite the fact that These are strong more than enough to qualify from it.
Poland to qualify from Team A @ 8/fifteen
Poland to defeat Costa Rica @ 4/five
