Match Analysis
Widzew Łódź host Lechia Gdansk at Stadion Widzewa Lodz in Ekstraklasa (matchday 32). Kick-off is Saturday 9 May 2026 at 14:45 UK time.
Form Guide
Widzew Łódź — last 10 games: 3W 4D 3L, averaging 1.30 points per game. Last five: D W L W L. They are averaging 0.70 goals per game and conceding 0.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their matches, indicating a tendency toward clean sheets or low-scoring outcomes.
At home, Widzew Łódź have gone 4W 3D 3L in their last 10 home games (1.50 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.10 goals scored and 1.10 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from their last 10 home games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Across their last 10 games, Lechia Gdansk have recorded 3W 2D 5L — 1.10 PPG. Last five: W L D L L. Their scoring rate of 1.40 per game is modest, conceding 1.60 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Lechia Gdansk's away record over their last 10 away games: 3W 2D 5L (1.10 PPG). Away from home they average 1.40 goals scored and 1.90 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.
There is minimal separation in the form figures — Widzew Łódź at 1.30 PPG versus Lechia Gdansk's 1.10. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.
Head to Head
The H2H picture is flat: the 5 H2H matches we hold have produced 1 wins for Widzew Łódź, 2 for Lechia Gdansk and 2 draws. Form and model data should carry more weight here.
The 5 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.4 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 8 Nov 2025, ended Widzew Łódź 1–2 Lechia Gdansk — a Lechia Gdansk win.
The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.
In-Play Profile
Widzew Łódź in-play tendencies (last 65 games, 32 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 72% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 72% of the time; BTTS occurs in 41% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 38% of games (home games); they fail to score in 31% of games.
Lechia Gdansk in-play tendencies (last 65 games, 32 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 91% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 92% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 67% of those occasions; of the 21 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 38%; BTTS occurs in 75% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 72% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 38%.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Widzew Łódź 49% versus Lechia Gdansk 69%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Widzew Łódź 45% | Lechia Gdansk 63%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Widzew Łódź 1.53 xG and Lechia Gdansk 0.97 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: Widzew Łódź attack 0.859 / defence 0.821 | Lechia Gdansk attack 1.093 / defence 1.232. League average goals — home 1.448 / away 1.084. Lechia Gdansk's defence rating of 1.232 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Widzew Łódź's projected output up. Data: built from Widzew Łódź's last 65 games and Lechia Gdansk's last 65.
Result probabilities: Widzew Łódź 49% | Draw 29% | Lechia Gdansk 23%. Fair-value odds: Widzew Łódź 2.05 | Draw 3.49 | Lechia Gdansk 4.43. Widzew Łódź hold a narrow Poisson edge at 49% — the draw (29%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 46% | BTTS Yes probability 50% | Total xG 2.51. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 46%/54% — the total xG of 2.51 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 50% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Widzew Łódź are the pick at 49% — moderate model lean. With a 29% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Widzew Łódź offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
Poisson projects 2.51 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 54% probability — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 50%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Widzew Łódź 50% (last 10 home games) | Lechia Gdansk 70% (last 10 away games).
