  • When: Monday, November 22, 7 pm local time

Mexico and Poland both want to progress to the knockout stage, and winning this clash is imperative for both units. According to the bookmakers whoever takes three points here would have almost an unreachable advantage over the direct rival. The bookmakers don’t see a favorite here, and both units have even odds coming into this matchup.

Mexico vs. Poland Preview

Mexico

El Tri oscillated following the qualifiers and all the other CONCACAF competitions. We’ve seen them losing and winning each on two occasions in the past two months, suffering failures to Paraguay, 0-1, and Colombia, 3-2, while beating Peru 1-0, and Iraq 4-0. In seven of the last 10 games, Mexico played only one side scored. 

Their game is pretty fluid, fast, and energetic, though, the Mexicans have problems against physically strong units, and sometimes they can’t impose their pace and style of play when meeting such opponents. 

This crew plays together for a long time and there is very good chemistry on the field. Hirving Lozano, Raul Jimenez, Edson Alvarez, and Andres Guardado are the top stars of the Mexican team, whose strongest part is the midfield. 

Poland

The Polish team is at its prime, and it is now or never for them to make a notable result in one big competition. Over the recent few years, Lewa and the boys have always been present on the international stage but always failed to deliver a good result. 

Poland reached Qatar through the playoffs. After advancing without a fight against Russia, they later defeated Sweden in the playoff finals, 2-0, outplaying the Blagult in one good game. From that moment on, Poland had only two wins, and those were against the same rival – Wales.

Both were in the UEFA Nations League, and in the other four events, they lost to Belgium twice, while recording a draw and a defeat to the Netherlands. We weren’t impressed with how Poland played throughout this competition, and the problematic area in the team was defense, which allowed 12 goals.

Mexico vs. Poland Head to Head

These teams had a friendly international in 2017, when Mexico won with a minimal result, 0-1. 

Back in 1978, at the World Cup in Argentina, Poland was better than the Mexican unit, 3-1. The Poles were led by the fantastic Zbigniew Boniek.

Mexico vs. Poland Prediction

We assume that both head coaches will implement ultra-defensive tactics because they don’t want to risk anything and lose this game. The stakes are high, and any kind of failure would decrease the chances for the second phase. That’s why under 2.5 goals is the best pick.

Our verdict: Under 2.5 goals
