Line-up:
Pre-match information
Slovakia is the lowest ranked team in Group E according to the FIFA rankings. However, in the first match of Group E at EURO 2024, this team created a big surprise when they won against Belgium - the strongest team in the group.
In that match, when Belgium had 16 shots, 5 of which were on target but failed to score, striker Ivan Schranz took advantage of the opportunity, scoring the only goal to bring home 3 points for the home team.
Coach Francesco Calzona has a team that does not have many stars, but the whole team is united and plays with determination. This brings a lot of hope that the Slovakian team will make a difference in this tournament.
However, Dubravka and his teammates need to avoid the mistake of 2021, when the team won the opening match and then lost the remaining two group stage matches and was eliminated.
In the second match, Slovakia faced Ukraine - a team that had a disappointing start to EURO 2024 when losing 0-3 to Romania. In that match, the Eastern European team controlled the ball up to 70% but only had 2 shots on target.
Deadlocked in attack, Ukraine also made consecutive mistakes in defense leading to 3 goals conceded.
This is definitely something that this team needs to change if they don't want to continue to receive another defeat and leave the tournament early.
In the most recent encounter between the two teams in the UEFA Nations League 2018, the victory went to Slovakia with a score of 4-1. However, before this match, since 2002, Ukraine had been unbeaten in 6/7 matches against Slovakia, winning 3 and drawing 3, losing 1 match in 2014.
