The UEFA Euro 2020 returns with another set of group stage games this week as Russia take on Finland at the Krestovsky Stadium on Wednesday. Both teams will be intent on reaching the knock-outs this year and cannot afford to lose this match.

Finland edged Denmark to a 1-0 victory in their opening game of Euro 2020 and will be confident ahead of this fixture. The Finnish outfit has been inconsistent over the past year and has a few problems to resolve ahead of this encounter.

Russia, on the other hand, suffered a comprehensive 3-0 defeat at the hands of Belgium last week and cannot afford a similar result in this match. The Russians have impressive players in their ranks and will need to step up to the plate to keep their hopes of qualification alive.
