Lech Poznań form and stats

Lech Poznań have played three Ekstraklasa home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

The Lech Poznań manager den Brom and his crew return home after a 1-1 draw away versus F91 Dudelange in the Europa Conference League.

A home win before that one, as predicted. The team were big favourites against F91 Dudelange and won 2-0. The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Poznań handle that role? We have found 9 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Lech Poznań as they are travelling to their away game against Lechia Gdansk in the Ekstraklasa. That match is three days after this one.

The lack of attacking qualities in Lech Poznań means that they have only scored 1 goal in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match.

Piast Gliwice form and stats

Piast Gliwice are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Ekstraklasa, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses).

219 minutes! That's how long the Gliwice goalkeeper Frantisek Plach and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

The fans enjoyed Piast Gliwice's previous match versus Stal Mielec (placed 6th), a 4-0 win played at home. As you can tell from the results above, Piast Gliwice was very dominant against Stal Mielec, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with Kądzior and Wilczek providing the goals. Wilczek certainly enjoyed Piast Gliwice's last game versus Stal Mielec, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 4-0 victory. Wilczek, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 9.6. Wilczek scored three goals, hit the woodwork once and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Prior to that result Gliwice won their away game at Cracovia Krakow. The scoreline was 1-0.

Piast Gliwice are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 0 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats. From a total of 6 matches.

Something to take note of for sports bettors considering a bet on only one (or no) side scoring in this fixture: This club have played 5 consecutive league games with just one or no team finding the net.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Polish Cup trip to Lechia Dzierzoniow.
