Legia Warszawa form and stats

Legia Warszawa have performed here at Stadion Miejski Legii Warszawa im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego this season with 11 wins from 16 Ekstraklasa matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 5 games and lost 0. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Legia Warszawa after consecutive victories at their own ground.

Legia Warszawa are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Lechia Gdansk. The defeat against Lechia Gdansk was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored eight minutes into stoppage time (by Gajos). Josué, a forward, was the declared top player for the side in that match, earning a rating of 8.45 (out of 10). Josué hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times and had 61 successful passes (of 70 total).

Ahead of that match, Warszawa won a home game hosting Jagiellonia Biaystok (5-1).

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Legia Warszawa's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 5 games, won 3 matches, drawn 1 and lost 1.

Legia Warszawa can score goals in their home matches. After 16 league matches they have found the net 35 times.

Śląsk Wrocław form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Śląsk Wrocław so far with only 14 points returning home. The records show 3-5-8 (win-draw-lose).

Śląsk Wrocław had fun at their own home (Stadion Miejski Legii Warszawa im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego) last time out, beating Miedź Legnica 4-2. Yeboah (2), Nahuel and Schwarz scored. A bizarre fixture with masses of goals last time out for Wrocław, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that match, will this fixture be as enjoying? Which player has bagged at least one goal three matches in a row for the away team? The answer is Yeboah and that is quite the feat! Midfielder Schwarz was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.5. Schwarz scored one goal, served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 29 successful passes (of 34 total).

A home win before that, celebrating 3-1 vs Wisła Płock.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Śląsk Wrocław playing away, we found 6 games. Results were 2 away wins, 0 draws and 4 home wins.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Śląsk Wrocław as they have only managed to score 11 times from 16 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Wrocław have seen the ball go into their own net 22 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The previous H2H match ended Śląsk Wrocław - Legia Warszawa 0-0, earlier this season. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: seven - two - one (Warszawa wins - draws - Śląsk Wrocław wins). As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), eight had two or less.
