Legia Warszawa form and stats

Three Ekstraklasa home games done for Legia Warszawa, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches.

A nice win for Legia Warszawa last time playing, versus Zagebie Lubin. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with Tomáš Pekhart (2) scoring for the victors. In the match before that, Warszawa hosted Cracovia Krakow (after extra-time, 4-5 on penalties) and drew the Super Cup game 0-0.

There will be little rest for Warszawa after this match as they are travelling to Pogon Szczecin for a Ekstraklasa game in only three days.

Warszawa has scored 4 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. Warszawa have conceded 6 goals in these home games, a significant number.

Śląsk Wrocław form and stats

Śląsk Wrocław 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). Wrocław has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Wrocław lost away at Wisla Plock (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. That result followed a home victory 3-1 versus Cracovia Krakow.

After this away game Wrocław return home for a Ekstraklasa game against Jagiellonia Biaystok. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Wrocław have scored 3 goals in 3 league games away. 3 goals have been conceded by Śląsk Wrocław in these games.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: seven - two - one (Warszawa wins - draws - Śląsk Wrocław wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.
