✍️ Match Preview

Fixture Analysis

It is a Ekstraklasa clash, Regular Season - 18 as Lechia Gdansk welcome Gornik Zabrze to Polsat Plus Arena. Kick-off is set for Friday 5 December 2025 at 19:30 UTC.

Form Guide

Lechia Gdansk — All Games: 5W 2D 3L from 10 Ekstraklasa outings this season, averaging 1.70 points per game. Last five: L L W D W. They are averaging 2.00 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches — an extremely high rate that makes BTTS Yes a well-supported standalone angle from their form alone. This season is still relatively young for Lechia Gdansk, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Gornik Zabrze's away record: 3W 3D 4L from 10 road trips in Ekstraklasa this season (1.20 PPG). Away from home they average 0.90 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 1.20 is notably below their overall 1.80 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.

The form comparison is too close to call — 1.70 PPG (Lechia Gdansk) versus 1.80 (Gornik Zabrze). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.

Head to Head
