Slovakia vs Romania lineups: Starting XIs, confirmed team news, injuries

Slovakia have brought in David Strelec to lead their line against Romania today.

Both teams know a draw will be enough to qualify for the last-16 at Euro 2024 but neither will rest on their laurels, as shown by changes in attack by both.

Robert Bozenik had started the previous two games but is on the bench in Frankfurt in Slovakia’s only change.

Slovakia beat Belgium in their opener in perhaps the shock of the tournament thus far before losing to Ukraine, who had already been defeated by Romania.

Romania, meanwhile, brought Denis Alibec off the bench for their defeat to Belgium, and he misses out on a place in the XI as Denis Dragus gets the nod up front.

Florinel Coman comes in on the wing for Valentin Mihaila.
