Czech Republic were pretty mediocre in qualifying as they finished third in their group behind Belgium and Wales.
But they made it to the play-off by virtue of topping a Nations League group also containing Scotland, Israel and Slovakia.
The winner of this match will visit Poland in the play-off final.
The Poles received an automatic final berth after their opponents Russia were kicked out of the World Cup following the invasion of Ukraine.
