Euro 2012: Czech Republic vs Poland; Greece vs Russia Today

Despite two good performances at Euro 2012, co-hosts Poland must win their final group game against the Czech Republic to advance from Group A.

Poland have drawn their opening two group matches of the European Championship and know that anything other than victory on Saturday (June 16, 2012) against the Czechs will mean their time at the tournament is over.

Czech Republic's Petr Cech has let in five goals from 12 shots on target so far at the continental championships and has not been helped by poor defending.

In fact, Czech Republic have conceded almost two goals per game on average in 2012, which will give Poland plenty of confidence ahead of Saturday's match.

Smuda is hopeful defender Damien Perquis, as well as midfielders Dariusz Dudka and Eugen Polanski, will be fit after suffering injuries against Russia.

Czech Republic captain Tomas Rosicky may not play in Wroclaw after admitting he can barely stand due to an injured Achilles tendon, while there is also some doubt on Cech who has a shoulder problem.

Greece vs Russia

Russia is set to take on Greece in the last round of games in Group A. Russia's opening performances against the Czech Republic and Poland suggest that they are capable of defeating anyone this summer. With Greece needing a win to stay in the competition, and Russia only a point, it is little wonder Dick Advocaat's team are favorites to reach the quarter-finals.

Greece's injury-ravaged squad have yet another casualty in the form of Kostas Chalkias, who limped out of his side's 2–1 loss to Czech Republic mid-way through the first-half. The PAOK goalkeeper was replaced by Michalis Sifakis on Tuesday, but Alexandros Tzorvas could also be in contention to replace the 38-year-old. Russia, by contrast, could be set to stick to the same starting XI that earned them a convincing victory against Czech Republic and a credible draw against Poland.

History is not on the side of the Greeks, who have lost to the Russians in each of the last two group stages of the competition in 2004 and 2008. Besides, the former Soviet Union national team were victorious in nine of their 11 meetings with Greece.
