Lechia Gdańsk form and stats

Lechia Gdańsk have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Ekstraklasa, after 3-1-8 (12 played). Lechia Gdańsk seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Impressive finishing from Zwoliński (2), Paixão and Durmus secured the home win 4-0 against Miedź Legnica in their previous game. That win felt good as this team had gone five league matches without victory. As you can tell from the results above, Lechia was very dominant against Miedź Legnica, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with Zwoliński (2), Paixão and Durmus providing the goals. Zwoliński, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 8.15. Zwoliński scored two goals, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 3 of 4 times.
