Match Overview
The Stadion Groclinu Dyskobolii will play host to a nice game in the first round of the Polish Ekstraklasa competition between Warla Poznan and Pogon Szczecin on Friday. The visiting side will feel that they hold all the aces against their opponents, but one can never discount the advantage that a raucous crowd and familiar surroundings can give. Pogon have been known to defend well with a lot of purpose.
Key Highlights
There have been a total of ten games recorded between these two teams in the past, out of which Pogon have won seven. The rest of the three matches were played out as drawn encounters. Warla Poznan have not won a single game against Pogon in the past. This means that they will feel heavily encumbered by the pressure weighing down upon their shoulders. Their attackers need to rise to the occasion on Friday.
Injury Report
There might be a few niggles here and there in the squads of both teams but it needs to be stated that neither Warla Poznan nor Pogon have any major injuries in their side. This is good news for everyone involved.
Prediction
Warla Poznan have scored more than one goal on just one occasion in the last five matches that they have played against Pogon. This means that Pogon have had their defenders coming to terms with the attackers of Warla Poznan quite comfortably whenever they have come up against each other. They have not kept a clean sheet in their last 5 matches either. We expect Pogon to win this game by a comfortable margin.
