Lech Poznan have started the new season brightly and a positive result in Slovakia would see them through to the playoffs. The Railwaymen made it all the way to the quarterfinal of this competition last season and will be aiming to at least match this feat.

Spartak Trnava, for their part, must win this game if they are to extend their continental sojourn and need to start the game on the front foot.

We are backing the two sides to cancel each other out in a high-scoring stalemate.
