The young football nation of Gibraltar plays its first competitive game at home (in Portugal) vs. Poland in the qualifying Group for Euro 2016. Group also has Germany, Republic of Ireland, Scotland and Georgia.
Gibraltar made a good impression since being accepted as an UEFA member … played 5 games, already won their first match (1-0 vs. Malta), made 2 draws and 2 losses. They lost 1-4 to Faroe in their worst performance but also held Slovakia to a 0-0 draw or Estonia to a 1-1 draw. Gibraltar has mostly players from their amateur domestic league but the skeleton of the team is based on English-born players who are playing or have played in England. Unfortunately for them their most experienced man Higginbotham retired so he won`t take part in this historic clash.

Poland looks good value for their odds to qualify, they have a good team and even thouth they missed on the World Cup they played some good games at times. They are a bit inconsistent alternating good football with poor matches so they have to work on that. Lewandowski is of course the man to watch for Poland today.
There-s no question who the better football team is, Poland is in another world than Gibraltar but I think Gibraltar will surprise a lot of people and will prove they are a better team than San Marino for example. Gibraltar is somewhere at a level with Malta or Liechtenstein so it won’t be easy to fill their net with goals. I see a defensive games from Gibraltar and I`m sure Poland will not bother too much in this game, so under 3,5 goals seems a good bet and the odds are value. Gibraltar is very unlikely to score and Poland will be happy with a 3-0 or even 2-0. Climate in Southern Portugal near the Sea can also help Gibraltar a bit in my opinion. My tip is under 3,5 goals to be scored. Correct score prediction: Gibraltar – Poland 0-3.
