Georgia’s hopes of getting out of the group rest on the shoulders of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who is the undoubted star player for his country. The 23-year-old has gone from strength-to-strength over the last two seasons for Napoli, putting up impressive numbers in both goals and assists, and the Crusaders’ hopes of getting out of the group will hinge on how he performs.
Patrik Schick is Czech Republic’s main source of goals but captain Tomas Soucek is the heartbeat of the team and has chipped in with 12 goals from his 69 caps. His aerial presence is a serious weapon, which was highlighted as he hit double figures for West Ham this season. Not one to shy away from a challenge, he is also a leading card candidate.
