An important duel in the bottom section of the 2. Liga East, with both Olimpia Elbląg and Hutnik Krakow experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 18th and the visitors in 15th place.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Olimpia and Hutnik Krakow.

Olimpia Elbląg form and stats

Olimpia Elbląg have played three 2. Liga East home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for Olimpia. Olimpia have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Olimpia Elbląg, who played 3-3 against Sokół Ostróda. That match was also played at this venue (Stadion Miejski). A 0-0 draw away before that, with Stal Rzeszow the opponent.

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?

Olimpia are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 3 games. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Olimpia Elbląg with 6 goals conceded in these matches.

Hutnik Krakow form and stats

The manager L. Janiczak is not happy with the away performances in the 2. Liga East so far, as all 4 matches have been lost. Bitter travels for Hutnik as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Lech Poznan II match.

Hutnik Krakow play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-1 to Znicz Pruszków (placed 11th). Preceding that match was the 2-2 draw at home vs Olimpia Grudziadz.

Hutnik Krakow are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 4 away goals from 4 games (in the league). There are big problems for the Hutnik defense as they have conceded 12 goals in 4 away games.
