Poland and Austria will clash in a Euro 2024 Group D match at the Oltmpiatsadion in Berlin, Germany on Friday.

Poland hopes record scorer Robert Lewandowski will be fit for its Euro 2024 Group D clash with Austria on Friday after slumping to a 2-1 defeat by the Netherlands in its opening game.

Lewandowski picked up a thigh injury in a warm-up friendly against Turkey, and though he was named on the bench against the Dutch, coach Michal Probierz decided not to risk him.

Austria coach Ralf Rangnick will likely field almost the same team, which gave a tough fight to tournament favourite France, losing only by an own goal courtesy of Maximilian Wober.

Ahead of the clash, Sportstar looks at the possible starting lineups of the two teams in their Group D match.
