Slovakia vs Ukraine: Hosts to look for winning revenge?

Ukraine to stick with tried and tested formation

Ukraine will stick with the 4-3-3 formation against Slovakia on Saturday, with Andriy Lunin in goal and Yukhym Konoplya and Oleksandr Zinchenko also featuring.

The visitors will be looking to bounce back from their opening day defeat to England, while Slovakia will be aiming to build on their impressive win over Spain.

Ukraine coach Andriy Shevchenko is likely to make just one change to the side that started against England, with Vitaliy Mykolenko replacing Mykola Matviyenko at left-back.

Zinchenko and Konoplya key for Ukraine

Zinchenko and Konoplya will be key to Ukraine's hopes of success against Slovakia. Zinchenko is a creative midfielder who can also play at left-back, while Konoplya is a winger who can provide pace and width.

Slovakia coach Stefan Tarkovic is expected to name an unchanged team from the one that beat Spain.

The hosts will be looking to exploit Ukraine's weakness at set-pieces, and will be confident of getting a result against a side that has struggled for form in recent months.
