Wisła Kraków form and stats

3 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Wisła Kraków playing as the away team in the Ekstraklasa this season. Three has not been a lucky number for Kraków as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Stal Mielec match. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Kraków are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Kraków failed to get anything from their last game, a Ekstraklasa home match vs Warta Poznan (placed 6th) that ended with defeat 0-1. A 1-2 loss hosting Rakow Czestochowa before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Wisła Kraków playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were one Kraków win, three draws and six defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Kraków are hosting Cracovia Krakow in the Ekstraklasa only three days away.

Kraków have scored 16 goals on their travels this season, from 12 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Kraków have seen the ball go into their own net 12 times on the road.
