Struggling Stal Mielec will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Lechia Gdańsk in the upcoming league round. It’s 16th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
- Lechia Gdańsk haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Stal Mielec form and stats
Stal Mielec have collected 9 points from their Ekstraklasa home games so far after 2-3-3. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at Stadion MOSiR, but a victory now would be sweet for Mielec.
Mielec drew their last game, also a home match. Cracovia Krakow (placed 14th) was the opponent, 0-0 the score. Heartbreak before that as Stal Mielec lost 1-2 at Górnik Zabrze's place.
This is expected to be a close game, with Mielec perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Stal Mielec as a small favourite), we find four games. Stal Mielec has won three of these, drawn zero and lost one.
Stal Mielec aren't scoring a lot here at Stadion MOSiR in the league, with only 7 goals from 8 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Stal Mielec defense is not exactly impregnable. 13 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Lechia Gdańsk form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Ekstraklasa travels is 4 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats. Lechia Gdańsk has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.
198 minutes! That's how long the Lechia Gdańsk goalkeeper Dusan Kuciak and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
Lechia are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the Ekstraklasa against Górnik Zabrze (placed 4th). Preceding that game was the away victory against Rakow Czestochowa with the score of 1-0.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Lechia playing away and similar expectations, we found 15 relevant matches. Results were six Lechia Gdańsk wins, four draws and five defeats.
Lechia Gdańsk find the net regularly in their away games. 9 goals from 8 away fixtures in the league. As opposed to that, Lechia Gdańsk have seen the ball go into their own net 9 times on the road.
