Zagłębie Sosnowiec form and stats

Zagłębie Sosnowiec's results here at Stadion Ludowy in the 1. Liga have been very modest with 0 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 192 minutes without scoring a league goal. O. Koprowski (own goal) was the last player to find the net.

The fans are hoping that Sosnowiec will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-4 away loss in the 1. Liga game against Miedz Legnica (placed 2nd). Sosnowiec were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Preceding that match was the home game against Resovia Rzeszow that was lost 0-1.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Polish Cup game versus Piast Gliwice in only three days. This game is also played here at Stadion Ludowy.

The lack of attacking qualities in Zagłębie Sosnowiec means that they have only scored 3 goals in 6 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Sosnowiec's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 7 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Podbeskidzie form and stats

The visitors are W3-D2-L1 on the road this term. That's in the 1. Liga.

Two travels in a row for Podbeskidzie, whose manager P. Jawny could celebrate last time after the 1. Liga win against Stomil Olsztyn. As you can tell from the result, the match against Stomil Olsztyn was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Sandecja Nowy Sacz.

With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Podbeskidzie are regular goalscorers on their travels. Podbeskidzie have conceded 10 goals in these games.
