Preview
Belgium come into this after a 4-1 loss at home to Netherlands in the opener on Saturday.
Depay led the way for the Oranje with a brace alongside goals from Bergwijn and Dumfries. Batshuayi scored late on and his strike could only be termed as nothing less than a consolation effort.
This loss left Belgium at the bottom of the group as they suffered their first defeat since last year’s loss to Italy in October.
On the other hand, Poland began their Nations League campaign with a 2-1 win over Wales last week.
Also read: Williams broke the deadlock for Wales before second half efforts Kaminski and Swiderski ensured a turnaround victory.
This got the Polish side up and running as they look to consolidate with successive victories.
With just 1 loss from their last 5 matches across competitions, Poland has the edge in terms of consistency.

Poland possible 11:
Grabara, Puchacz, Glik, Bednarek, Bereszynski, Klich, Zalewski, Krychowiak, Zielinski, Swiderski and Lewandowski
Prediction: Belgium 2-1 Poland
After the thrashing against Netherlands, the hosts will be upbeat to make amends.
Poland has a quality attacking front led by the in-form Lewandowski and could create trouble for the Red Devils.
However, we feel Belgium has enough to secure the three points and gain their 1st win of the competition.
