Georgia - Czech Republic. Predicted line-ups and latest news, – June 22, 2024

The game day on Saturday, 22 June at UEFA Euro 2024 will kick off with a face-to-face match between Sakartvelo and Czech Republic.

The Kartveli played their debut match at the European Championships on Tuesday and despite playing well, they lost 1-3 to Türkiye. The Czechs also lost their opening match at the tournament, although they were close to victory. But, we state the fact: the Czechia national team in the first round game lost to Portugal 1:2.

Therefore, the match between Sakartvelo and Czechia will determine a lot at least in the fight for third place. Whether the teams will fight for a direct ticket to the play-offs will become clear in the third round.

Speaking of line-ups, after his team's impressive performance against Türkiye, Willi Sanyol is unlikely to make many changes to the starting line-up of the Sakartvelo team on Saturday.

Therefore, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia - his country's leading scorer with 15 goals - will join George Mikautadze in the forward line; Giorgi Kochorashvili, who plays for Levante in the second tier of the Spanish league, should continue to play in midfield.

Cremonese central defender Luka Lokhoshvili could be a candidate if Sagnol decides to shake up the defence, while Zuriko Davitashvili offers a more attacking option out wide.

Meanwhile, Patrik Schick is the Czechia's all-time top scorer (19 goals) and after going scoreless against Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday, the Bayer Leverkusen striker will again try to build on his five-goal streak at Euro 2020.

As ever, West Ham United's influential pair of Tomasz Soucek and Vladimir Zufal will play key roles in Ivan Hasek's team - in central midfield and on the right wing respectively.

Jindrich Stanek made seven saves against Portugal - the most of any goalkeeper in the first round of group games - and the Slavia Prague goalkeeper provides the Czechs' last line of defence.

Based on these facts, the Dailysports team has prepared for you the predicted line-ups for the match between Sakartvelo and Czechia.
