Poland welcome Estonia to what promises to be a febrile National Stadium in Warsaw for a one-legged shootout in this massive Euro 2024 playoff semi-final today, Thursday, March 21. Fans can watch Poland vs Estonia for FREE in France and Italy. Full details of how to watch Poland vs Estonia live streams below.

The teams are in and Poland start with captain Robert Lewandowski up front, as expected. Piotr Zielinski, Nicola Zalewski will load the bullets for the Barcelona man, with Arsenal defend Jakub Kiwior and Southampton's Jan Bednarek in defense. Matty Cash and Krzysztof Piatek are on the bench. Estonia start with ex-Liverpool defender Ragnar Klavan at center-back alongside captain Karol Mets. Youngster Oliver Jurgens gets the nod up front, with fellow 20-year-old Martin Vetkal also in from the off. Markus Soomets starts in midfield.

Poland were unusually inconsistent in Euro 2024 qualifying, finishing third in Group E behind table toppers Albania and runners-up Czech Republic. The Eagles even contrived to lose to minnows Moldova in a stunning 3-2 upset last June. That defeat brought about the sacking of manager Fernando Santos, the Euro 2016-winning boss replaced by U21 coach Michal Probierz. Unbeaten in four games under the new man, Robert Lewandowski & Co. will look to continue their improved form.

Estonia are the lowest-ranked side left in qualifying. Though the Blueshirts failed to win a single one of their Group F fixtures, picking up a solitary draw with Azerbaijan among seven defeats in a group that also contained Belgium and Austria, they have reached the playoff stage by dint of being the best group winner from League D of the 2022/23 UEFA Nations League. That they only had to come through Malta and San Marino doesn't augur well, though, and nor do the 22 goals conceded in qualifying. Konstantin Vassiljev, the 39-year-old captain, has his work cut out.

The winner of Poland vs Estonia will go on to play either Wales or Finland in the Path A final in Cardiff on March 26, with the winner of that game joining the Netherlands, France and Austria in Group D at this summer's Euro 2024 tournament in Germany.
