Slovakia and Ukraine, two countries who had quite different beginnings to their Euro 2024 campaigns, will compete against one another in a fascinating matchup that will take place on Friday in Group E.
Slovakia pulled off the biggest surprise of the Euros so far, defeating Belgium 1-0 in the first meeting between the two sides. Ivan Schranz emerged as a hero with his decisive goal that ultimately determined the outcome of the match. Slovakia will be aware that a victory or even a tie against Ukraine would greatly enhance their chances of securing a spot in the knockout stage.
Ukraine suffered a 0-3 defeat against Romania in the opening game of the competition for both teams. If they lose to Slovakia, they will be on the verge of being eliminated in the first round.
