Game 4 - Poland Vs Russia Poland will take on Russia in Warsaw on Tuesday evening hoping to banish memories of a second-half slump that saw Friday's opening encounter with Greece end in a disappointing 1-1 draw. Nerves set in as the Poles looked set for victory in front of an expectant home crowd on that occasion, but against fierce rivals Russia there can be no room for such error. There is an enforced change in goal for Poland, with Wojciech Szczesny serving a one-match suspension for his dismissal in the opener, while penalty-saving replacement Przemyslaw Tyton is set to deputise. Otherwise, Poland look set to be unchanged heading into the Russia clash. With a goal already to his name, striker Robert Lewandowski will be looking to build upon his impressive start to the tournament by adding to his tally in a potentially wide open encounter, whilst Dortmund colleagues Jakub Blaszczykowski and Lukasz Piszczek were also particularly impressive in the opening half against Greece. Russia, for their part, were imperious in victory over Czech Republic, winning 4-1 as Alan Dzagoev and Andrei Arshavin starred. The Russians' only change may also come in goal, with first-choice 'keeper Igor Akinfeev set to return to fitness in time to start. Akinfeev has been back in training this week following a knee injury, but should he suffer any setback, able deputy Vyacheslav Malafeev will step in once more. With three points and a confident performance under their belts, Russia will be brimming with confidence heading into the clash with Poland. with any positive result being nigh on enough to ensure progression to the quarter-finals. With a strong defensive line based around CSKA Moscow's centre-back pairing and a midfield that play together at Zenit on a weekly basis, there is a familiarity to the side that may guide Russia to an unexpected finish this summer. Poland player to watch: Jakub Blaszczykowski. Dortmund winger Blaszcykowski was arguably Poland's best player in the opening game with Greece, driving his side forward with a display of desire and energy that few can claim to have matched so far at Euro 2012. Up against him will be Anzhi full-back Yuri Zhirkov, who provides the Russian side with valuable width from left full-back. If Blaszcykowski can pin him back, it will significantly reduce Russia's attacking threat. Russia player to watch: Roman Shirokov. The Zenit St Petersburg midfielder is a potential match-winner, with his late runs from midfield a constant source of goals for club and country. Now 30, Shirokov has improved with age and uses every ounce of his experience to influence the game. Surrounded by club colleagues in midfield, the understanding shown with Konstantin Zyryanov and Igor Denisov in the centre of the park is crucial to the rhythm of the Russian game. Key Battle: Lukasz Piszczek v Andrei Arshavin[/b]. In Russia's 4-1 win over Czech Republic, Arshavin was simply outstanding. The Arsenal forward consistently displayed attacking menace rarely seen during his later days at Arsenal, terrifying his opposite number as he cut in off the left flank to drive towards the area. On Tuesday, though, he will come up against Lukasz Piszczek, one of the best right-backs in European football. Although a fine attacking outlet, Piszczek's primary responsibility will be to nullify Arshavin, for which he will need to call upon every ounce of his defensive abilities. [b]Trivia: The two sides last met in August 2007 - a 2-2 draw in Moscow with Jakub Blaszczykowski among the scorers. Stats: Poland have not won any of their last five European Championship games, while Russia have five wins from their last six fixtures in the competition. Match |
