Lechia Gdańsk form and stats

Lechia Gdańsk have only played one Ekstraklasa game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats from 15 matches.

Lechia manager P. Stokowiec and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Slask Wrocaw (placed 6th) in the Ekstraklasa. Łukasz Zwoliński felt an ounce or two of guilt after the draw against Slask Wrocaw as the player was unable to convert a penalty kick in the 8th minute.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Wisla Plock in a game that was won 1-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Lechia have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found ten games) they have won four times, drawn three and lost three.

Lechia Gdańsk has scored 1 goal so far and conceded 0 goals from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
