​FIFA World Cup -- Poland vs Argentina Game Preview

 

Analysis:

Argentina and Poland will face off at Stadium 974 on Wednesday with the goal of winning Group C and advance to the round of 16.

 

Poland

Lewandowski finally celebrated his first World Cup goal on Saturday as Poland defeated Saudi Arabia 2-0. Poland's victory on Wednesday would ensure them the group's top spot and a berth in the round of 16, and if Saudi Arabia fails to defeat Mexico, a draw would well be sufficient to finish at the summit.

 

Argentina

Four days after the unexpected 2-1 loss to Saudi Arabia, Argentina made a critical 2-0 victory over Mexico on Saturday. If Argentina wins all three points against Poland and Saudi Arabia fails to defeat Mexico by a margin greater than Scaloni's team, they will finish first in Group C and advance to the knockout stages.

 

Prediction

The only thing the Argentines need is a win. It will be difficult for the visitors to break through a very strong Polish national team defense and outstanding goalie because their positioning assaults are still lacking.

 

 

Pick: Poland +1/1.5
