Bełchatów form and stats

With {3 1. Liga wins}, 2 draws and 9 defeats from their home games, Bełchatów, who have the fewest points (11) at home in 1. Liga, are certainly not brimming with confidence. With nine home 1. Liga games in a row without a win, the Bełchatów fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Resovia Rzeszow game long ago, can be stopped today.

Before that game, the home loss against Widzew Lodz with the scoreline 2-3.

Bełchatów are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 15 goals in 14 games. Bełchatów have conceded 22 from these games.
