The visiting Polkowice side should be favourites in this visit to Olimpia Grudziądz, as the away team holds a 5 point advantage from their six league games this season.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Olimpia Grudziądz form and stats

Three 2. Liga East home games done for Olimpia Grudziądz, who are not happy collecting 0 points from these matches. Olimpia Grudziądz are slowly digging their own grave here at Stadion Miejski im. Bronisława Malinowskiego with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in ten attempts. The last victory here came in the Zagebie Sosnowiec match.

It's back home for Grudziądz, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Lech Poznan II away with the result 2-1. P. Janczukowicz and José Embaló found the net in that victory. Before that game, the home loss against Katowice with the scoreline 1-3.

This is expected to be a close game, with Olimpia Grudziądz perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Olimpia Grudziądz as a small favourite), we find seven games. Grudziądz has won five of these, drawn one and lost one.

Grudziądz have scored 2 league goals here from 3 matches, not a lot. Olimpia Grudziądz have allowed more than three conceded goals on average in their home matches so far.

Polkowice form and stats

Things could have gone better for Polkowice in their 2. Liga East away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

Impressive finishing from E. Sobków (2) and F. Baranowski secured the home win 4-2 against Pogon Siedlce in their previous game. Prior to that result Polkowice won their away game at Lech Poznan II. The scoreline was 3-1.

As you can tell from the result, the match against Pogon Siedlce was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Polkowice playing away and similar expectations, we found five relevant matches. Results were four Polkowice wins, zero draws and one defeat.

4 goals so far away for Polkowice, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last four meetings): Grudziądz won one game, one match ended with a draw and Polkowice has two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / one
