The Mexicans will face The Polish in a potentially pivotal Group C match. The match is scheduled to be played at Stadium 974, the first temporary venue in World Cup history, built from 974 recycled shipping containers. Mexico vs Poland will give each a great fight just like they did in their previous 8 meetings in their history.
Mexico – Mexico is making their eighth World Cup appearance in a row, having been eliminated in the last 16 stages in each of their previous seven appearances. It remains to be seen whether they have the talent to make a serious run to the last eight for the first time since hosting the tournament in 1986, but their upcoming match against Poland could be crucial in terms of progressing from Group C.
Poland – Meanwhile, Poland is aiming to advance past the group stage for the first time since Mexico in 1986, with their first game against that country likely to be crucial given that Argentina is also in their group. After finishing third in 1974 and 1982, the Eagles have failed to advance past the group stage in each of their last three World Cup appearances in 2002, 2006, and 2018.

Dream 11 Top Picks and Player Stats
Robert Lewandowski: The Polish striker, who could be in his last World Cup is the leading man to look out for all teams in this World Cup. But now it’s turn for the Mexicans to stop this missile. Even though Lewandowski didn’t get the success he was looking for at Barcelona, he is still a big threat while playing for the national side.
Hirving Lozano: The Napoli forward is one pacey guy who can swivel past the defence in a blink. Even though Mexico has a slightly weaker defence on paper, they have a strong attacking lineup following the likes of Raul Jimenez and Alexis Vega.
