Warta Poznań form and stats

When playing at home in the Ekstraklasa, Warta Poznań, who have the fewest scored goals (8) at home in Ekstraklasa, have managed 4 wins, 1 draw and suffered 5 defeats from 10 games.

No payout for Poznań in their previous match, an away game at Legia Warszawa that ended in defeat 2-3. Ahead of that match, Poznań won a home game hosting Wisla Plock (2-0).

This is expected to be a close game, with Warta Poznań perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Warta Poznań as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Warta Poznań has won five of these, drawn two and lost four.

Podbeskidzie form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Podbeskidzie, who have the fewest scored goals (21) in Ekstraklasa, so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-7 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Podbeskidzie, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-2 versus Stal Mielec (placed 15th). A draw for Podbeskidzie before that, at their own venue hosting Lechia Gdansk (2-2).

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

The visitors have scored 8 goals from 10 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Podbeskidzie's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 26 goals in 10 travels.
