Poland and Finland will face off in a World Cup qualifier at the Silesian Stadium on Sunday night.
The two teams are currently occupying second and third spot in Group G, with only goal difference separating the pair after four rounds of action.
Poland passed their toughest test to date by earning an impressive 1-1 draw away at the Netherlands last time out.
That was a promising start for new Poland boss Jan Urban, and he will be hoping that stalemate will act as a springboard for further success when his side hosts Finland this weekend.
With their being five nations in this particular group, it was the Eagle-owls turn to sit out on Thursday night.
However, Jacob Friis’ and his side used that as an opportunity to warm up for this clash by taking on Norway in a friendly fixture, with Erling Haaland scoring the only goal of the game in Oslo.
How the bookies view it: Three points for Poland
Despite both being locked on seven points, Poland come into this clash as short-priced 11/20 favourites on Boylesports.
Finland are unfancied 5/1 underdogs on Boylesports while a share of the Silesian Stadium spoils is also considered unlikely at 11/4 with the same firm.
Head to head: Finland looking for more of the same
Having claimed a 2-1 win in the reverse fixture back in June, Finland could hold the psychological edge ahead this weekend’s reverse fixture. The visitors are a whopping 18/1 on Boylesports to win by the exact same scoreline on Sunday night.
Players to watch: Lean on Lewandowski
Robert Lewandowski boasts a remarkable return of 84 goals across his 159 appearances for Poland to date, making him a terrific value option to strike on Sunday night at 4/5 on Bet365.
With two goals across his four appearances for Finland during the current World Cup qualifying campaign, Joel Pohjanpalo looks a little overpriced to get on the scoresheet here at 15/4 on Bet365.
Predicted line-ups
Poland boss Urban could stick with the same starting XI that held the Netherlands to a 1-1 draw on Thursday night.
Finland's Benjamin Kallman could be rewarded with a starting berth on Sunday night after coming off the bench and scoring what proved to be the decisive goal against Poland back in June.
Poland: Skorupski; Cash, Kedziora, Bednarek, Kiwior; Slisz, Zielinski, Kaminski, Szymanski, Zalewski; Lewandowski
Finland: Hradecky; Peltola, Koski, Uronen; Lod, Karinen, Kamara, Tenho, Antman; Kallman, Pohjanpalo
Anything else catch the eye?
Packaging up a Poland win alongside under 4.5 goals will bring about an attractive 4/5 Bet Builder on Boylesports.
This combination would have clicked in seven of Poland’s last nine victories across all competitions.
On a similar line of reasoning to the above, the 6/4 on Boylesports for Poland to win by a scoreline of 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1 also holds plenty of appeal.
