Legia Warsaw vs. Wisla Plock Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Legia Warszawa and Wisła Płock, taking place on Friday, 28 April 2023, at Stadion Wojska Polskiego in Warsaw.
Legia Warsaw, Recent Form
There will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Legia Warszawa players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Warta Poznań. They came away from that fixture with 65% of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 8 on target. By comparison, Warta Poznań managed 10 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Kosta Runjaić will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 6 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 16 games in a row. Kosta Runjaić will be slightly concerned about his defence, after only managing 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
Their strong run of form at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 16 games in a row.
Tomáš Pekhart will be feeling confident about adding his name to the scoresheet once more at Stadion Wojska Polskiego, having notched up 5 goals for Legia Warszawa in their last 6 league matches at home.
Wisla Plock, Recent Form
The Wisła Płock squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 4-2 home defeat against Jagiellonia Białystok, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They achieved 64% possession in that match and had 20 strikes at goal, with 8 hitting the target, up against Jagiellonia Białystok's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late. They don't have an enviable away record at the moment, having conceded at least one goal in 13 of their last 14 league matches way from home, making valuable points hard to acquire on the road.
Wisła Płock will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form on the road. They've lost their last 6 league games in a row away from home and not recorded a win on their travels in 12 games.
Łukasz Sekulski will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Wisła Płock.
Legia Warsaw vs. Wisla Plock Head to head
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Legia Warszawa, losing 2-1 to Wisła Płock.
Nafciarze have some indifferent league form when it comes to away matches against Legia; they have shipped at least 1 goal in their last 5 games away to them. In their last 3 away league games against Wojskowi, Wisła Płock have conceded a total of 9 goals and that's an average of 3 per game.
Playing at home, Legia have won the last 3 and are unbeaten in the last 3 times they have faced Wisła Płock in the league.
With 2 goals notched up from the last 3 league meetings against Legia at their home ground Stadion Wojska Polskiego, Wisła Płock man Dominik Furman will be looking for more of the same in this one.
