Slovakia to vote for the presidential run-off - last minute. It will be decided whether the populist prime minister Robert Fico will be forced into an uncomfortable cohabitation with a pro-EU liberal exponent.

A head-to-head is looming between a former prime minister and current president of Parliament, Peter Pellegrini, and a former foreign minister, Ivan Korcok. The polls, open from 7am local and Italian time, close at 10pm and significant results are expected around midnight.
