Team News
Hungary
Poland
- Star man Dominik Szoboszlai is still sidelined for the hosts, which is a huge blow to start their qualifying campaign given the level above most of his teammates that the youngster is.
- Freiburg's Roland Sallai is perhaps the biggest attacking threat in Szoboszlai's absence, though Hungary do boast solid defensive options, not least RB Leipzig duo Peter Gulacsi and Willi Orban.
- Veteran striker Adam Szalai returns to the squad having missed the most recent international break and could lead the line on his own.
- The big news for Poland is that Robert Lewandowski is available after German chancellor Angela Merkel afforded the striker an exemption from the current coronavirus restrictions that would have forced him to quarantine for two weeks upon his return.
- Bayern were ready to block his departure had that been the case but Europe's leading marksman links up with the squad and will captain the side.
- New coach Paulo Sosa has handed out as many as seven first time call ups, including Barnsley centre-back Michal Helik who has enjoyed an excellent season in the Championship.
