Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Jastrzębie & Puszcza Niepołomice face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Polish Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
Jastrzębie and Puszcza Niepołomice should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Jastrzębie form and stats
Last season, Jastrzębie's Polish Cup journey ended in the 16th finals.Jastrzębie have played three 1. Liga home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 19 attempts. With ten home 1. Liga games in a row without a win, the Jastrzębie fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Radomiak Radom game long ago, can be stopped today.
No payout for Jastrzębie in their previous match, an away game at Tychy 71 that ended in defeat 1-3. Prior to that, an away loss at Nieciecza in the 1. Liga.
This is expected to be a close game, with Jastrzębie perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Jastrzębie as a small favourite), we find eight games. Jastrzębie has won four of these, drawn zero and lost four.
The manager P. Sciebura will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Odra Opole in only three days.
Jastrzębie has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 0 goals from 3 games. Jastrzębie have conceded 6 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Puszcza Niepołomice form and stats
They also participated in Polish Cup last season. This ended in the 1st round.The 1. Liga season is young and Puszcza Niepołomice have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far.
Puszcza Niepołomice lost away at Radomiak Radom (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A 1-1 draw at Miedz Legnica's stadium before that.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by Puszcza Niepołomice in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Niepołomice, three draws and three defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Puszcza Niepołomice now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A 1. Liga game at Tychy 71 is waiting in only four days.
Niepołomice have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 3 league away games 3 goals have been scored. For Niepołomice, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
