An important duel in the bottom section of the 1. Liga, with both Stomil Olsztyn and Puszcza Niepołomice experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 14th and the visitors in 13th place.

Insights:
  • Stomil Olsztyn have the fewest clean sheets (5) in 1. Liga
  • Puszcza Niepołomice is in the worst form (0-1-5)

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the 1. Liga.

Relegation threatens Olsztyn who should definitely be looking for some points here. Puszcza Niepołomice is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
