ŁKS Łódź form and stats

Let's have a look at how ŁKS Łódź performed last season in the 1. Liga: They landed a 1st position in the league table after playing out 19 victories, 9 draws and 6 defeats. In total they scored 58 and conceded {36 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 6 and lost 5 with 26/20 goals scored/conceded. The visitors' first away game in the Ekstraklasa ended in defeat. Last season ŁKS Łódź had these away match statistics: Played 17; won 6, drew 6 and lost 5.

ŁKS Łódź lost away at Legia Warszawa (0-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. ŁKS Łódź goalkeeper Bobek was happy for a grand day versus Legia Warszawa, but in spite of pulling off six saves the loss could not be stopped. Bobek was the team player of the game with the player rating of 8.14. The agile goalkeeper Bobek saved a penalty.

That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Odra Opole in the 1. Liga.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with ŁKS Łódź playing away and similar expectations, we found 10 relevant matches. Results were 3 Łódź wins, 6 draws and 1 defeat.

It's early days yet, but ŁKS Łódź has scored 0 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).

Head 2 Head

Data for the former ten meetings featuring these two teams are: four wins for Ruch Chorzów, five draws and one win for ŁKS Łódź. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.
