Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Cracovia Kraków in 9th and Lechia Gdańsk in 10th place.
- Cracovia Kraków has the most matches under the total-line (8) in Ekstraklasa
- Lechia Gdańsk haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
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.
Cracovia Kraków form and stats
3 victories, 3 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Cracovia Kraków have to build on here at Stadion Cracovii im. Józefa Piłsudskiego in the Ekstraklasa.
Cracovia Kraków enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Gornik Zabrze's place. The match ended 2-0 with Pelle van Amersfoort and Michal Sipľak scoring. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Wisa Krakow.
This is expected to be a close game, with Cracovia Kraków perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Cracovia as a small favourite), we find 14 games. Cracovia Kraków has won eleven of these, drawn two and lost one.
The Cracovia fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 7 matches. Cracovia's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 7 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Lechia Gdańsk form and stats
Playing away, Lechia Gdańsk have won 2 games, drawn 1 and suffered 3 defeats in the Ekstraklasa this season. It's looking increasingly bleak for Lechia Gdańsk who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Slask Wrocaw was the last time a defeat was avoided. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Lechia have lost on their last two travels.
Lechia are looking to quickly end their 368 minutes long goal drought in the Ekstraklasa.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Ekstraklasa home defeat versus Wisła Płock with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Legia Warszawa's place.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 14 similar matches played by Lechia Gdańsk in our archives, and the results are: five wins for Lechia Gdańsk, four draws and five defeats.
