ŁKS Łódź form and stats

4 victories, 3 draws and 7 defeats. That’s what ŁKS Łódź have to build on here at Stadion MOSiR in the Ekstraklasa.

Łódź travelled for their previous game, a trip to Raków Częstochowa that ended 1-1. Before that game, the home loss against Górnik Zabrze with the scoreline 0-1.

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

The manager W. Stawowy will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Śląsk Wrocław in only four days.

Jagiellonia Białystok form and stats

Playing away, Jagiellonia Białystok have won 4 games, drawn 4 and suffered 6 defeats in the Ekstraklasa this season. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Jagiellonia are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

Jagiellonia Białystok delivered a 2-2 draw playing at home against Wisła Płock (placed 12th) in their previous match; a Ekstraklasa game. Preceding that game was the away victory against Cracovia Kraków with the score of 1-0.

Jagiellonia's last match (vs Wisła Płock) ended in drama as all points looked lost at the score 0-2. They did not give up, fought back and in the end a courageous finish rescued a draw after 90 minutes thanks to a 90th minute equalizer by Jakov Puljić.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Jagiellonia playing away and similar expectations, we found 13 relevant matches. Results were four Jagiellonia Białystok wins, three draws and six defeats.

A new game in only four days for Jagiellonia, the Ekstraklasa home match versus Piast Gliwice. Busy days.

Jagiellonia have scored 16 goals on their travels this season, from 14 away games in the league. Jagiellonia Białystok struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 24 goals conceded from these games.
