Mexico vs Poland: World Cup 2022 predictions, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h, odds

With Argentina widely expected to top the group and Saudi Arabia not particularly liked, the battle to finish second could well be on. Obviously, things rarely work out that simple, but a quick win for either could really make a statement.

Both countries have extensive experience in major tournament football, but rarely really threaten to go into a deep run, which makes for interesting business.

There are dissenting voices in Mexico around manager Tato Martino and his brand of football, with hard-to-reach goals. Poland, meanwhile, were little better than awful at Euro 2020 and will surely enter the final days of their time under Robert Lewandowski, but boast quality in midfield.

Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Mexico vs Poland Team News

For Poland, there is no new injury problem at this stage.

Mexico vs Poland Prediction
