Key players:

Gvilia (GEO): A regular on international duty is the 26-year old Warsawa midfielder. He is played as a CAM or central attacking presence who likes to cut through the defences to create opportunities or score goals. His crosses from the flanks are dead on & he has been a major transformative presence for his club as well. So far for his national team, he has 32 caps & scored 3 goals and provided 3 assists.

Zenjov (EST): This will be the 85th International cap for the 31-year old. Deployed primarily as a striker or centre forward. He has excellent ball retention which gives him the aerial advantage to win over the top balls & tracks back well to provide defensive cover. He has so far scored 12 goals for the home soil in 84 appearances
