Ekstraklasa prediction: Lech Poznań should edge out Górnik Łęczna on their own turf

It's no vacation for neither Lech Poznań nor Górnik Łęczna as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Lech Poznań form and stats

Lech Poznań are steadily winning Ekstraklasa games and points here at Stadion MOS Poznań. 10 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat is the summary from 14 games.

It's back home for Lech Poznań, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Wisla Plock away with the result 1-0. Kownacki found the net in that victory. The talented striker Kownacki edged out all the other footballers in that game and got a match rating of 8.03 out of 10. Kownacki scored one goal, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 4 of 4 times.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Legia Warszawa that ended 1-1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Poznań as they have a new game in only four days, a Ekstraklasa match thankfully also at home. Stal Mielec are visiting.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (32 in 14 games), Lech Poznań's attacking play is working.

Górnik Łęczna form and stats

There's been little loot from Górnik Łęczna's travels as they have only collected 10 points from 14 away games in the Ekstraklasa. Górnik Łęczna only have 2 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 4 draws. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Prasoł, the Górnik Łęczna manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Górnik won their last game, 1-0 versus Radomiak Radom played at home. Midfielder Serrano was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.61. Serrano hit one key pass and had 40 successful passes (of 48 total).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Piast Gliwice wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Górnik Łęczna have another fixture that requires travelling in just four nights, a Ekstraklasa match against Raków Częstochowa. A difficult fixture list for them!

The attacking power of Górnik Łęczna when travelling is not overwhelming with 11 goals scored from 14 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Górnik have conceded 24 goals in these games. Górnik Łęczna has visited these top teams four times, and 3 of 4 has ended with 2 goals or more!
