Czech Republic v Poland (Group A)
16^th June 2012, 7.45pm, BBC1, at The Municipal Stadium, Wrocław

The Czech Republic take on Poland in the penultimate fixture in Group A at the 2012 European Championships. The Czech Republic are somewhat of a work in progress while Poland are the lowest ranked side in the group so this could well make for a very competitive clash.

Back The Draw @ 11/5 with Bet Red Kings

Poland do have the advantage of being one of the home nations which can be a leveller but it might also work against them putting added pressure on the side.

While the Czech Republic come into the 2012 European Championship as 66/1 outsiders, they could well surprise some of their opponents. An ageing squad definitely required freshening up and Manager Michal Bílek has certainly done that since taking up the reigns. The Czech’s qualifying campaign wasn’t overly impressive but this team is still a work in progress and they could improve as the competition progresses.

Poland will be hopeful that a positive result from this encounter will see them qualify for the knockout stage of the tournament in front of a home crowd. Franciszek Smuda’s squad are ranked down at 65^th in the world by Fifa but that number could improve dramatically following a successful campaign at Euro 2012. The Czechs are bound to make it tough for them however and a draw might be the most profitable outcome for punters.
