Pogoń Szczecin form and stats

6-3-5 (win-draw-lost) are the Ekstraklasa numbers at home for Pogoń Szczecin so far this season.

Szczecin faced defeat in their previous match, away at Lech Poznań (0-4). Before that, Szczecin had a home game versus Cracovia Kraków which ended with a victory 1-0.

Pogoń Szczecin were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Szczecin have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won two, drawn two and lost two.

The Szczecin fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 14 matches. From these home matches, Szczecin have conceded only 13 goals.

Lechia Gdańsk form and stats

5 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Lechia Gdańsk playing as the away team in the Ekstraklasa this season. Two points from the last two away games for Lechia Gdańsk, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.

The manager P. Stokowiec was unhappy after their last game, a Ekstraklasa match played at their home ground Stadion Energa Gdańsk. Lechia suffered a 1-3 loss to Cracovia Kraków (placed 5th). A 2-2 draw at Górnik Zabrze's stadium before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Lechia Gdańsk playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were four Lechia Gdańsk wins, two draws and four defeats.
