The Ekstraklasa league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Podbeskidzie and Stal Mielec are placed 15th and 14th respectively.
Podbeskidzie and Stal Mielec should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Podbeskidzie form and stats
Podbeskidzie have less points than they have played home games in the Ekstraklasa so far. Their two previous attempts here have produced 1 point.
In their previous game, the manager K. Brede led his Podbeskidzie to a defeat in the Ekstraklasa match away at Lechia Gdansk. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadion Miejski. Preceding that match was a defeat to Raków Częstochowa (1-4).
As you see from the result above, Podbeskidzie suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.
This is expected to be a close game, with Podbeskidzie perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Podbeskidzie as a small favourite), we find four games. Podbeskidzie has won three of these, drawn zero and lost one.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Podbeskidzie at home in the league. 3 on target and 6 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Stal Mielec form and stats
Still no away game victory in the Ekstraklasa for Stal Mielec with 2 draws and 1 loss from their first 3 attempts.
Mielec play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 2-4 to Lechia Gdansk (placed 4th). Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Cracovia Kraków that ended 1-1.
A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Mielec, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Mielec playing away and similar expectations, we found five relevant matches. Results were four Stal Mielec wins, one draw and zero defeats.
Mielec find the net regularly in their away games. 4 goals from 3 away fixtures in the league. The Mielec manager D. Skrzypczak has some worries about the defense as 6 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last eight matches): Podbeskidzie four wins, zero draws and Stal Mielec four victories. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
