Poland vs Denmark
European Qualifiers – 2018 World Cup
Date: Friday 8th, October 2016.
Kick-off: 19:45 UK
Venue: Stadion Narodowy (Warsaw).

Poland host Denmark as they search for their first win in 2018 World Cup Qualifiers. The Polish side locks horns with Group E topper at the prestigious PGE Narodowy stadium in Warsaw.

Poland played a 2 nil draw with Kazakhstan in their first world qualifier clash. The White and Red squandered a 2 goal lead as they settled for a point at Astana Arena. Poland sits 2^nd on the Group E log with a point from 1 game, 2 points behind leader and Saturday opponent i.e. Denmark.

Denmark started their World Cup qualifiers campaign with a 1-0 triumph over Armenia at the Telia Parken stadium in Copenhagen. Eriksen 17 minute strike was all the Danish Dyanmite needed to garner their first win. Moreover, Eriksen missed a penalty kick in the 73^rd minute of same encounter. Denmark sits top of the group with 3 points, 2 point ahead of Poland going into this game.

Poland vs Denmark: Head to Head Statistics

Poland has 5 wins in their last 10 competitive games. The White and red missed out in the 2014 edition of the world cup, and have won 3 of their last 11 world cup qualifiers game.
Denmark has 4 wins in their last 10 games, and 3 in their last 10 competitive games. The Danish Dynamite missed out in the 2014 edition of the world cup that took place in Brazil.
In the last 5 meeting between both teams, Denmark has 3 wins, while Poland has 1. However, both sides met during the 1978 World qualifiers; with Poland enjoying a 6-2 aggregate win over Denmark as they claimed the ticket to Argentina 1978.

Poland vs Denmark: Prediction

Two sides with a lot of quality and flare. Poland lost just one of their last 5 world cup qualifiers games played at home, while the Danish Dynamite lost one of the last 5 World Cup Qualifiers games played away. This makes the game evenly poised with promising end to end and creative action.

Therefore, I will predict a score draw in this encounter.
