National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Korona Kielce or Stomil Olsztyn that keep their silverware dream alive.
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!
Korona Kielce form and stats
Last season, Korona's Polish Cup journey ended in the 16th finals.5 victories, 2 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Korona Kielce have to build on here at Suzuki Arena in the 1. Liga.
A nice win for Korona last time playing, versus Odra Opole. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with P. Malarczyk and J. Podgórski scoring for the victors.
A 2-2 draw away in the 1. Liga before that, with Polkowice the opponent.There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Korona as they are travelling to their away game against Katowice in the 1. Liga. That match is three days after this one.
Korona Kielce are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 12 goals in 9 games. Korona are not conceding a lot of goals here at Suzuki Arena in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 7 from 9 matches.
Stomil Olsztyn form and stats
Last season their Polish Cup adventure ended in the 1st round.There's been little loot from Stomil Olsztyn's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 6 away games in the 1. Liga. Stomil Olsztyn only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 1 draw. Three has not been a lucky number for Olsztyn as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Tychy 71 match.
The manager A. Stawski was unhappy after their last game, a 1. Liga match played at their home ground Stadion OSiR. Olsztyn suffered a 0-1 loss to SKRA Czestochowa.
Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Sandecja Nowy Sacz.A new game in only four days for Olsztyn, the 1. Liga home match versus Zagebie Sosnowiec. Busy days.
The attacking power of Olsztyn when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Olsztyn have conceded 10 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
