World Cup Qualification 2026: Slovakia-Luxembourg, the likely lineups

Slovakia receives Luxembourg for the return match of Group A of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Kickoff at 8:45 p.m. at the City Arena in Trnava. The hosts go in the hunt for valuable points in the race for the top spot. The guests, on the other hand, are looking for an outside shot to stay in the slipstream in the group that also includes Germany and Northern Ireland.

Calzona could rely on Tupta in the offensive trident complemented by Duris and Strelec, with Duda, Bero and Sauer forming the midfield line. Defense headed by Skriniar, between the posts Dubravka.

On the other side, Strasser is expected to confirm the midfield barrage formed by Olesen and Barreiro in the midfield, with Sinai, Tomas Cruz and Dardari in the three-quarter supporting the only offensive reference, Muratovic.

Probable lineups

Slovakia (4-3-3): Dubravka; Hancko, Skriniar, Satka, Gyomber; Duda, Bero, Sauer; Strelec, Duris, Tupta. All. Calzona.

Luxembourg (4-2-3-1): Moris; Jans, Mahmutovic, Carlson, Bohnert; Olesen, Barreiro; Sinai, Tomas Cruz, Dardari; Muratovic. All. Strasser.
