Group E consists of five nations with Albania, Czech Republic, Faroe Islands, Moldova, Poland battling it out for a spot at the European Championship. Czech Republic take on Poland as number 38 in the FIFA world ranking, whereas the visitors sit as number 22 in the world.

Czech Republic hope to have margins of their side, when welcoming Poland this coming Friday at Fortuna Arena. Three points in the tournament opener goes a long way in their quest to land the first place in such a tight encounter. It has the look of a very equal affair, when Poland travel to Czech Republic this coming Friday.
