  • Górnik Zabrze have the most conceded goals in the first half (27) in Ekstraklasa

For Legnica relegation is already certain this season. Only divine intervention and/or time travel can save them and neither look likely. Górnik Zabrze is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
