Miedź Legnica form and stats

Disaster struck Miedź Legnica last season as they could not defend their status as a Ekstraklasa team. With 19 defeats from 34 games, and only 4 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Miedź Legnica are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W3 D7 L7.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Legnica have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 6 games) they have won 2 times, drawn 2 and lost 2.

It's been an intense period of training leading up to this game for Miedź Legnica, who have participated in five training matches. Miedź Legnica have won 2 of these, drawn 3 and were beaten in 0 games.
