Polkowice form and stats

1 victory, 2 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Polkowice, who have the most conceded goals (12) in 1. Liga, have to build on here at Stadion Górnik in the 1. Liga.

The fans are hoping that Polkowice will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 2-4 away loss in the 1. Liga game against Widzew Lodz (placed 2nd). As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Prior to that, an away loss at Widzew Lodz.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Polkowice have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won one, drawn three and lost three.

The Polkowice fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 5 matches. Polkowice have conceded 8 from these games.
