Poland vs Russia Prediction

Roberto Lewandowski has been in the form of his life and he could be the difference-maker this Tuesday. However, he may only come out in the 2nd half as a substitute as Poland will be looking to keep their captain fit for the Euros. Russia have been fantastic throughout the Euro qualifiers, winning 8 out of their 10 games and are running high on confidence coming into the game. Russia will be hoping to get the best out of Golovin and Cheryshev in the game against Poland. Our Poland vs Russia prediction is a 2-0 victory for Russia.
