Poland take on the visitors Estonia Ukraine in the semifinal match of UEFA Euro 2024 qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, February 21st at PGE Narodowy (Warsaw).
Poland displayed quite a decent and consistent style of football. They even secured the right to play in the World Cup, although not without some questions. In Qatar, they managed to advance from the group stage. Yes, they suffered a defeat in the Round of 16, but it's worth remembering that the 1-3 loss was against the eventual finalists, the star-studded France. However, after the tournament, they couldn't resist the temptation to appoint Fernando Santos. Who knew that such an experienced and respected coach would fail so quickly and deeply? Even after his resignation, which wasn't delayed, there were quite a few setbacks. As a result, the nominal group favorite finished below not only the Czech Republic but also Albania. Fortunately, their results in the Nations League were sufficient to qualify for the playoffs.

Estonia showed weak results, but the format helps them. The Blue Shirts once participated in playoff matches for the right to play in the championship. But that was the peak for this modest team representing a small country where football isn't particularly popular. Currently, the Baltic team lost 7 out of 8 matches in the qualifiers, with only one draw, and a goal difference of 2-22. This puts them in last place in the group, and it seemed like there's no fight for the Euro spot. But being the underdog helped: in the Nations League, under the guidance of Thomas Haberli, they played as outsiders in Division D. However, at least there, they showed a perfect result against Malta and San Marino. This earned them the right to participate in the playoffs through a specially added path. However, even there, they might face one of the strongest possible opponents.
The neighboring sides often organized friendly matches in the early 2000s. The White and Reds emerged victorious five times in a row, but the last time, in 2012, the Blue Shirts finally secured a 1-0 win at home, with the only goal scored by Vasilyev in the 90+ minute All arguments are in favor of Lewandowski and company. We bet that they will start the qualifiers confidently and win against the Baltic team with a handicap of -1.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Poland to win with -1.5 handicap.
