Official line-up Poland-Saudi Arabia: predictions scorers, cautions and shoot-outs for today’s match on Saturday 26 November at 14:00
Don’t be fooled by the blow they scored against Argentina: Saudi Arabia are still the least strong team in this group and against Poland, who need a win, it is normal to think that the Europeans are the favourites. The draw against Mexico – with Lewandowski’s missed penalty still screaming vengeance – has moved the ranking, but does not allow further missteps. Of course, Saudi Arabia will also play with the possibility of taking a draw and then playing for everything in the last fixture of the grouping, but it will be difficult, without a doubt, to come out of this match unscathed. Here, however, are our predictions for goalscorers, shooters, and possible cautions.
- POLAND (3-4-1-2): Szczesny; Bereszynski, Glik, Kiwior; Cash, Krychowiak, Bielik, Frankowski; Zielinski; Milik, Lewandowski.
- SAUDITED ARABIA (4-5-1): Alowais; Abdulhamid, Alamri, Albulayhi, Alburayk; Albrikan, Alanjei, Almalki, Kanno, Aldawsari; Alshehri.
Official line-ups Poland v Saudi Arabia, goalscorer prediction
Milik
Everyone is expecting Lewandowski, surely keen to put behind him the mistake from 11 metres that prevented Poland from beating Mexico. But Milik could come out of the hat: the Juventus striker is someone who can see the goal with extreme regularity. And that is why he could also find the goal in at least two circumstances. As for the goalscorer, however, our prediction remains unchanged: we rely on the Barcelona striker.

Question of caution: Poland’s Krychowiak is one who could pick up a yellow at any time. Albulayhi, on the other hand, a central defender, could find it difficult to stop the Polish attackers. Watch also for a possible yellow for goalkeeper AlOwais. Saudi Arabia plays with a very high defence and could risk a few exits. Besides the fact that if his team is ahead in the final minutes, he could get a yellow card for a time loss.
