Górnik Zabrze form and stats
Overall Ekstraklasa stats at home this season for Górnik Zabrze are 2-1-1 (wins-draw-losses).
The Górnik Zabrze goalkeeper Martin Chudy is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 218 minutes without conceding a goal in the Ekstraklasa.
An away draw last time out for Górnik Zabrze, facing Slask Wrocaw in a game that ended 0-0. In the game before, an away victory in the Polish Cup match versus KSZO with a 3-2 scoreline.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Górnik have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eleven matches with the results: Won eight, drawn two and lost one.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (8 in 4 games), Górnik's attacking play is working. 5 goals have been conceded.
Piast Gliwice form and stats
0 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Piast Gliwice, who have the fewest scored goals (5) in Ekstraklasa, playing as the away team in the Ekstraklasa this season. Piast Gliwice seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
There were no winners in Gliwice's previous match, a Ekstraklasa home game that ended 2-2 vs Wisla Plock (placed 13th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Cracovia Krakow wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
As mentioned above, Gliwice drew the match against Wisla Plock. Manager W. Fornalik brought on Michał Żyro to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Piast Gliwice playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were two Piast Gliwice wins, two draws and five defeats.
After this away game Gliwice return home for a Ekstraklasa game against Lechia Gdansk. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Gliwice are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 4 away games. Gliwice's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 6 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Górnik Zabrze three wins, three draws and Piast Gliwice four victories. As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
