1. FC Koln-Borussia Dortmund. Friday 2:30 PM EST
This match will feature four Polish internationals but five Polish-born players (Counting Lukasz Podolski). After being red hot in the USA match, Kuba Blaszczykowski and Adam Matuszczyk will now face against each other. Both players were send back earlier from the Polish camp to rest for this match-up. Don’t expect Robert Lewandowski to start after a horrible international showcase with Poland.
2. Korona Kielce-GKS Belchatow Saturday 1:15 PM EST
As the Polish Ekstraklasa returns from international break, the hottest match on schedule for week 9 is Korona Kielce vs. GKS Belchatow. Its number two vs. number three in the standings. Red-hot Korona Kilece will look for a win and over take first place in the standings with Jagiellonia Bialystok loss.
3. Lyon-Lille Sunday 3:00 PM EST
After two very impressing international matches, Ludovic Obraniak returns to France and his side Lille will take on very poor Lyon. Lille currently sit third in the French Ligue 1. If we get lucky, we may also see Timothee Kolodziejczak play for Lyon. Kolodziejczak made three appearances for Lyon this season.
4. Auxerre-Bordeaux Saturday 1:00 PM EST
Two Polish internationals will be featured in this match; Dariusz Dudka and Irek Jelen. Both players weren’t at the Polish camp in North America. Jelen missed the tour beacuse of injury and Dudka was not allowed to leave by Auxerre. All eyes are now on Dariusz Dudka who is set to return to the Polish national team. After Sebastian Boenisch went down for six months with an injury, Smuda is looking for a temporary left defender and Dudka just might be the guy.
5. Arsenal-Birmingham Saturday 10:00 AM EST
Another match to watch if Lukasz Fabianski gets to start. Its still unknown who will start in goal for Arsenal this weekend. Fabianski had a good game against Chelsea two weeks ago but the Gunnars lost 2:0. English media praised the Polish keeper.
Which match will you most defiantly catch this weekend?
