Preview: Group A - Czech Republic vs. Poland

Sports Mole previews Euro 2012 co-hosts Poland's Group A decider against the Czech Republic in Wroclaw on Saturday.

It's all to play for on Saturday in Wroclaw as the Czech Republic take on co-hosts Poland in what can be described as a Group A decider.

With Russia only needing a draw against Greece to reach the quarter-finals, a win for either of these sides is likely to see them also make it through to the last eight.

Tomas Rosicky is a doubt for the Czechs after picking up an Achilles injury, while Petr Cech could also miss the game at the Municipal Stadium.

Damien Perquis, who has featured in Poland's two previous matches, will sit out the clash with an knee problem. Grzegorz Wojtkowiak is expected to be drafted into the centre of defence in his place.

Wojciech Szczesny should also make a return in goal after serving a one-match suspension for his red card in the tournament's opening match against Greece.

Current form:

Czech: WDWLLW
Poland: DWWWDD

Possible lineups:

Czech: Cech; Gebre Selassie, Sivok, Kadlec, Limbersky; Hubschman, Plasil; Jiracek, Rosicky, Pilar; Baros

Poland: Szczesny; Piszczek, Wasilewski, Wojtkowiak, Boenisch; Dudka, Blaszczykowski, Polanski, Murawski; Obraniak, Lewandowski

Sports Mole says: 2-1
