Fixture Analysis
It is a Ekstraklasa clash, Regular Season - 34 as Legia Warszawa welcome Cracovia Krakow to Stadion Miejski Legii Warszawa im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego. Kick-off is set for Saturday 21 May 2022 at 16:30 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Ekstraklasa games this season, Legia Warszawa have gone 4W 3D 3L from 10 outings — a 1.50 PPG return. Last five: L L L W D. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 1.50 conceded. 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.
Legia Warszawa's form when playing at home: 7W 0D 3L across 10 games at Stadion Miejski Legii Warszawa im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego this term (2.10 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.90 goals scored and 1.10 conceded per game. Their home PPG of 2.10 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.50 — Legia Warszawa are significantly better at Stadion Miejski Legii Warszawa im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego than their overall form suggests.
Cracovia Krakow — All Games: 4W 3D 3L from 10 Ekstraklasa fixtures this season — 1.50 PPG. Last five: W W D D W. Their scoring rate of 0.90 per game is modest, conceding 0.80 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Defensively, 0.80 goals conceded per game is elite-level — a side this difficult to score against is a real threat to Over 2.5 and BTTS Yes. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets.
Cracovia Krakow away from home this season: 3W 3D 4L from 10 away games — 1.20 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 0.80 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game.
There is minimal separation in the form figures — Legia Warszawa at 1.50 PPG versus Cracovia Krakow's 1.50. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.
H2H
The rivalry is an even one: 0 wins apiece for Legia Warszawa, 1 for Cracovia Krakow and 0 shared spoils from 1 past contests. Neither side holds a meaningful historical edge.
These sides have historically produced few goals — 1.0 per contest from 1 previous meetings. The Under 2.5 market has a well-supported historical case here. The most recent clash, on 5 Dec 2021, ended 0–1 with Cracovia Krakow winning.
With a balanced win record and just 1.0 goals per game historically, the H2H points toward a tight, low-scoring contest. Under 2.5 goals has the strongest statistical grounding from the fixture history regardless of which side wins.
Trading Patterns
Legia Warszawa in-play and half-time data (33 games, 16 at home): they score before half-time in 88% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 86% of the time; BTTS occurs in 44% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 56% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 39%; they fail to score in 30% of games.
Cracovia Krakow in-play and half-time data (33 games, 16 at away): they score before half-time in 62% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 82% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 54% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 38% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Legia Warszawa 52% versus Cracovia Krakow 48%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Legia Warszawa 52% | Cracovia Krakow 42%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Legia Warszawa 1.39 xG and Cracovia Krakow 1.01 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Legia Warszawa attack 1.236 / defence 1.178 | Cracovia Krakow attack 0.685 / defence 1.041. League average goals — home 1.079 / away 1.257. Data: 33 Legia Warszawa games / 33 Cracovia Krakow games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Legia Warszawa 44% | Draw 29% | Cracovia Krakow 26%. Fair-value odds: Legia Warszawa 2.27 | Draw 3.45 | Cracovia Krakow 3.85. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 29% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 43% | BTTS probability 49% | Total xG 2.40. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 57% — total xG of 2.40 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 49% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
Poisson rates Legia Warszawa as the most likely outcome at 44% — marginal model lean. With a 29% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Legia Warszawa offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
The Poisson model projects 2.40 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 43% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 49% on No. Form rates corroborate: Legia Warszawa 40% | Cracovia Krakow 40% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Legia Warszawa beat Cracovia Krakow 3-0 at Stadion Miejski Legii Warszawa im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego, Regular Season - 34, in the Ekstraklasa. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Legia Warszawa 1.39 xG and Cracovia Krakow 1.01 xG, a combined 2.40. The scoreboard read 3-0 for 3 actual goals. Legia Warszawa beat their projection by 1.6 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Cracovia Krakow landed 1.0 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Legia Warszawa attack 1.24 / defence 1.18 against Cracovia Krakow attack 0.69 / defence 1.04, drawn from 33/33 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Legia Warszawa 44% | Draw 29% | Cracovia Krakow 26%, with Legia Warszawa to win its most likely call at 44%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 43%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 70% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 49% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 47% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Legia Warszawa 52%, Cracovia Krakow 42%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 50%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Legia Warszawa's trading profile (33 games, 16 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 52% of their matches — today it did not.
Cracovia Krakow's trading profile (33 games, 16 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 48% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 27% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Legia Warszawa 1.21 PPG, Cracovia Krakow 1.39 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Legia Warszawa win broke the near-deadlock. Legia Warszawa (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.62 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 1.31 average — tighter than their form line. Cracovia Krakow (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.00 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 3 against a 1.25 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (hit). The model got the gist right while missing on the margins.
