Austria vs Poland: Lewandowski set to return for crucial Group D clash
Poland hopeful of star striker's fitness as they prepare to face Austria on Thursday
Poland are hopeful that star striker Robert Lewandowski will be fit for their second Group D match at Euro 2024 against Austria on Thursday.
Long-standing friendship between the two nations could be put on hold
The match will be a crucial one for both teams, who will be looking to get their first points on the board after defeats in their opening games. Poland lost 2-1 to Slovakia, while Austria were beaten 3-1 by Croatia.
Lewandowski, who is Poland's all-time leading scorer, missed the Slovakia game with a knee injury. However, he is said to be making good progress and could be fit to play against Austria.
If Lewandowski is fit, he will be a major boost for Poland. The Bayern Munich striker is one of the best players in the world and will be key to Poland's hopes of success at the tournament.
Austria will be without their own star player, David Alaba, who is suspended for the match. However, they will still be confident of getting a result against Poland.
The two teams have a long history of friendship and cooperation, but that could be put on hold when they meet in Berlin on Thursday.
