Slovakia need to bounce back from their group stage opening loss with a win.

One of the more interesting teams coming into Euro 2016, Slovakia were handed a bitter setback with a late loss against Wales in their opener. They need to bounce back and bounce back quickly in order to stand as good a chance as possible of advancing to the knockout rounds, and that means earning a win over Russia.

Of course, England already learned that beating Russia is easier said than done. Slovakia will need to have a much more focused attacking performance than they did against Wales, but will also have to take care not to over-expose their defense because Russia aren't at all without attacking talent. It's not going to be an easy game for Slovakia to win, but it is winnable and they really need that victory.
