Unbeaten in Group D of the European Championship qualifying stages after three matches, Poland head to Georgia hoping to extend their lead over the Republic of Ireland, who sit on equal points with two points and a single draw.

Poland Head coach Adam Nawałka has witnessed his side produce three dynamic performances – the most recent a tantalising 2-2 draw with Scotland. Having opened their campaign with a dominant 7-0 victory over Gibraltar, helped by four second-half strikes from influential target man Robert Lewandowski, Poland secured their most impressive victory over Germany.

With the recent World Cup winners unbeaten in a qualifying tie for a staggering 33 matches – last losing to Czech Republic back in October 2007 – Wojciech Szczesny’s fine form allowed for Arkadiusz Milik to open the scoring early in the second-half, before substitute Sebastian Mila slotted in a second with two minutes remaining of the game.

Poland will be determined to prove their recent victory wasn’t a fluke, and a trip to Georgia – who sit fifth in the group with just one win from their opening three ties, will prove the perfect opportunity for the likes of Lewandowski to strike again.

After falling to a 90th minute winner against Republic of Ireland in the opening game, Georgia struggled on a trip to the Highlands, with an own goal from Akaki Khubutia handing Scotland a 1-0 victory. Nevertheless, a 3-0 win in front of just 300 fans in Gibraltar allowed Temuri Ketsbaia’s side, who are ranked 117th, to gain vital points.

Poland’s big name stars could prove the difference at the Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena, with Lewandowski, Szcesny, Sevilla’s Grzegorz Krychowiak and Dortmund's Łukasz Piszczek all available for the qualifying tie.

Former Poland defender Michal Zewlakow, who made a record 102 appearances for the European nation, said:

"The win over Germany raised expectations of all. Now people await more wins. They want to see that beating Germany was not a coincidence. On the other hand, if we really want to think realistically about playing at the Euro 2016, in these kind of matches (against Georgia) we have to earn points, we need to win.

"Every loss of points shouldn't be satisfactory for us. One point from this trip might be taken more as a defeat than the victory. A win against Georgia would also be a sign in Europe that Poland isn't going to lose to just anyone."

Poland have only ever played a single match in the Georgian capital, losing 3-0 in qualifying for the 1998 World Cup. However, Zewlakow believes their next meeting will have a different outcome, adding:

"I dare to say that the match against Georgia won't be easier than the one against Germany. They also realise that we have players like Lewandowski, Szczesny or Krychowiak.”

Poland lead Group D on goal difference after three games, while second-placed Republic of Ireland head to Celtic Park to face Scotland.
