Korona Kielce form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Korona Kielce so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-7 (win-draw-lose).

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Ekstraklasa home defeat versus Lechia Gdańsk with 1-2 on the scoreboard. Prior to that match, the Korona Kielce manager M. Smyła faced defeat when travelling to Wisła Kraków and losing 0-2.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day.
