Poland - Romania is played on Friday! The "Tricolors," another test after the failed start in the Nations League / What Romania's starting lineup looks like

Poland and Romania will meet on Friday, October 2, at 21:45, at PGE Narodowy Stadium in Warsaw, in the third round of Group 4 of League B of the 2026-2027 Nations League. Neither national team has managed to win yet, and the match could prove decisive in the battle to avoid last place.

Romania occupy last place, with zero points and a goal difference of 3-6, following defeats by Sweden, 1-2, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, 2-4. Poland have one point and a goal difference of 1-3, after their 1-3 defeat by Sweden, giving them a minimal advantage in the standings.

The national team coached by Gică Hagi need a positive result to maintain realistic hopes of avoiding relegation. After the match in Warsaw, Romania will face Sweden at home on October 5. In November, the “Tricolours” will play Poland at home and Bosnia and Herzegovina away.

The match will be broadcast in Romania by Antena 1, which holds the rights to the national team’s matches until 2028.

Romania’s probable starting 11:

Hindrich – Rațiu, Drăgușin, Ghiță, Bancu – Băluță, R. Marin – Man, Hagi, Mihăilă – Bîrligea.
