Away to the Slovaks and the Checkers. 2 tough games. I wouldn't have given us a hope of getting anything out of either of them just after the San Marino game, but we've put in 2 good performances in qualifying since and i feel the team will be on a high after the friendly result against Denmark a couple of weeks ago.
I think a minimum of 4 points will be needed if qualification is to remain a posssibility, but it's posssible we could get nothing. Ideally, we beat the czechs as they're our biggest threat and their team is weaker than it has been over the last 6 or 8 years, still a tall order, though. the slovaks are a poor enough team, but on their day, I think they could beat alot of teams. They're technically good and very good passers. Lack a cutting edge in the middle of the park and up front though. The right winger was tasty enough at Lansdowne and will need to be stopped...if we can do that and concentrate at the back, we should have enough.
