Poland vs. Argentina: How do both squads compare ahead of World Cup clash?

Ahead of Wednesday's World Cup clash between Poland and Argentina, Sports Mole takes a look at both squads to see how they stack up.

With a lot still left to be decided in Group B of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Poland and Argentina will do battle at the Stadium 974 on Wednesday.

Czeslaw Michniewicz's men are top of the group as things stand, but a defeat in their next outing could see them suffer an early exit from the World Cup.

Lionel Scaloni's men, on the other hand, need a win to guarantee their place in the last 16, but a draw would also be enough provided the second group fixture between Saudi Arabia and Mexico also ends all-square.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how the squads of Poland and Argentina compare against each other ahead of Wednesday's contest.
