The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Wisła Kraków so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-8 (win-draw-lose). The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Brzęczek, the Wisła Kraków manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

It was a Ekstraklasa defeat before that one as the away game against Legia Warszawa wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Wisła Kraków as they have only managed to score 11 times from 12 away games in the league. Wisła Kraków struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 23 goals conceded from these games.
