Ekstraklasa: What this game might not have in elegance it should make up for in energy and attitude. Let's go: Piast Gliwice - Cracovia Kraków!

Insights:
  • Piast Gliwice have the most matches under the total-line (6) in Ekstraklasa
  • Cracovia Kraków have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Ekstraklasa

Cracovia Kraków could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Polish Cup game only four sleeps ago. That game, against ŁKS Łódź, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Cracovia Kraków.

Piast Gliwice form and stats

1-1-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Ekstraklasa numbers at home for Piast Gliwice so far this season.

Stress levels are on the rise for Gliwice's attacking players as they have now played 203 minutes without scoring in a league game. P. Sokolowski was their last goal scorer.

It's back home for Gliwice, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Wloclavia Wloclawek away with the result 2-0. N. Stojiljković and D. Kądzior found the net in that victory.

A Ekstraklasa defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Lechia Gdansk.

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 Gliwice have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 22 games) they have won twelve times, drawn six and lost four.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Gliwice as they have a new game in only four days, a Ekstraklasa match thankfully also at home. Wisa Krakow are visiting.

Gliwice have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Stadion Miejski with 7 goals in 4 league matches. Piast Gliwice have conceded 8 goals in these home games, a significant number.

Cracovia Kraków form and stats

Playing away, Cracovia Kraków, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Ekstraklasa, have won 1 game, drawn 2 and suffered 2 defeats in the Ekstraklasa this season.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to ŁKS Łódź (after extra-time, 3-1 on penalties) in their previous outing. The Polish Cup match ended in a draw 0-0.

Ahead of that match was the Ekstraklasa away draw versus Pogon Szczecin that ended 1-1.

Cracovia are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, five draws and three defeats. From a total of nine matches.

The attacking power of Cracovia when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 5 league matches away. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Cracovia have conceded 8 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
