Team news

Poland news

  • Poland could utilize a 4-1-4-1 formation, similar to the one that helped them beat Sweden 2-0 in March.

  • Grzegorz Krychowiak could start in midfield because Jakub Moder is out until later this year.

Wales news

  • Ben Cabango would have made the squad if he hadn't been injured, therefore Rob Page will likely select a back three of Ben Davies, Joe Rodon, and Ethan Ampadu.

  • Gareth Bale did not play in the Champions League final on Saturday and is expected to start against Poland on Wednesday evening.

Poland vs Wales predictions

Poland qualified for the 2022 World Cup in March after defeating Sweden 2-0. They've won six of their last nine games and will present a difficult challenge for Wales in midweek.

Wales has still to learn who they will face in its World Cup playoff final, with Scotland facing Ukraine shortly after this one begins. They'll be eager to gain some momentum ahead of the crucial meeting on Sunday.

Wales hasn't lost an international match in nine years, but they've conceded in all four of their recent matches. In Poland, the shares could be spoilt by midweek.

Prediction: Poland 1-1 Wales
