Lech Poznań form and stats

When playing at home, Lech Poznań have managed 9 wins, 1 draw and suffered 5 defeats from 15 games.

Lech Poznań lost their last game at Cracovia Kraków after a 0-1 scoreline. In the match before that, Lech Poznań hosted Zagłębie Lubin and drew the game 1-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Lech Poznań perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Lech Poznań as a small favourite), we find two games. Lech Poznań has won 2 of these, drawn 0 and lost 0.

The manager D. Zuraw will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Piast Gliwice in only four days.

A decent goal production from Lech Poznań in their home games so far, with 24 goals from 15 matches. Lech Poznań have conceded 19 in these home matches.

Lechia Gdańsk form and stats

The visitors, who have the fewest conceded goals (25) in Ekstraklasa, are W6-D5-L4 on the road this term.

There were no winners in Lechia Gdańsk's previous match, a Ekstraklasa home game that ended 1-1 vs Zagłębie Lubin. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Cracovia Kraków wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Lechia Gdańsk playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were 5 Lechia Gdańsk wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat.

After this away game Lechia Gdańsk return home for a Ekstraklasa game against Jagiellonia Białystok. That game is only four sleeps after this.

Lechia Gdańsk find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 16 goals from 15 away fixtures. 15 goals have been conceded by Lechia Gdańsk in these games.
