Poland Starting Eleven

Currently ranked No. 8 by FIFA, Poland has had seven first stage appearances and two semifinals appearances in their World Cup track record. However, World Cup 2018 will be their first appearance after 12 years.

To be frank, Poland has not been having the best of luck in their football ventures as of late. Not only did they lose 4-0 to Denmark and concede 14 goals in the qualifiers, their defender Kamil Glik has injured his shoulder the day he was named as part of the Polish squad.

Poland’s Starting 11 Team

Depending on the formation that team coach Adam Nawalka wants to run (most probably 4-4-2 or 4-3-3), the players who will be picked to start will be different. We strongly think that once coach Nawalka has decided on the strategy, he will pretty much go down the above list picking players.
