Poland:
Poland debuted at the World Championship with a draw, 0-0 score in the first match with Mexico, and in the second match they beat Saudi Arabia 2-0. The qualification calculations for the round of 16 are simple for Poland, who in case of a victory today, will finish the group in first place, while a draw or a defeat would complicate the situation in this group more. A good detail for Poland is the fact that they have not conceded a goal so far and the goal difference gives them an advantage in this regard.
Argentina:
On the other hand, Argentina started this final tournament disastrously, losing the debut match against Saudi Arabia, score 2-1. After this game, everyone removed Argentina from the qualification calculations, but it recovered in the second game of the group, winning the duel against Mexico with 2-0, both spectacular goals being scored by Messi and Enzo Fernandez. For Argentina, the qualification calculations are a little more complicated, with a win they qualify for the round of 16, but a draw or a defeat would bring them premature elimination from the group.
