Match Analysis
Cracovia Krakow host Piast Gliwice at Stadion Cracovii im. Józefa Piłsudskiego in Ekstraklasa, Regular Season - 5. Kick-off is scheduled for Saturday 13 August 2022 at 14:00 UTC.
Form Analysis
Looking at all fixtures this season, Cracovia Krakow stand at 6W 2D 2L from 10 Ekstraklasa matches — 2.00 PPG. Last five: L W W W L. They are averaging 1.30 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 — one of the tightest in the division. 7 clean sheets from 10 games (70%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. Both teams have scored in only 10% of their games — a low BTTS rate that suggests clean sheets are a regular occurrence. Cracovia Krakow have played only a handful of Ekstraklasa games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Cracovia Krakow's form when playing at home: 5W 3D 2L across 10 games at Stadion Cracovii im. Józefa Piłsudskiego this term (1.80 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.60 goals scored and 0.70 conceded per game. 6 clean sheets from 10 home games (60%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Stadion Cracovii im. Józefa Piłsudskiego. At home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — reinforcing BTTS No as the home-venue-backed angle.
Across all Ekstraklasa games this season, Piast Gliwice have recorded 5W 1D 4L from 10 outings — 1.60 PPG. Last five: W D L L L. Their scoring rate of 1.00 per game is modest, conceding 1.10 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Piast Gliwice have played only a handful of Ekstraklasa games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Piast Gliwice's away record: 6W 2D 2L from 10 road trips in Ekstraklasa this season (2.00 PPG). Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game. 5 away clean sheets from 10 games (50%) — they are as difficult to score against on the road as they are at home. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.
There is minimal separation in the form figures — Cracovia Krakow at 2.00 PPG versus Piast Gliwice's 1.60. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.
On the goals front, neither side scores or concedes freely enough to make BTTS Yes the call. Cracovia Krakow's 30% rate and Piast Gliwice's 30% (using home/away splits) both sit well below average — BTTS No is the form-backed angle.
Head to Head
The rivalry is an even one: 1 wins apiece for Cracovia Krakow, 1 for Piast Gliwice and 0 shared spoils from 2 past contests. Neither side holds a meaningful historical edge.
The 2 previous encounters between these sides have been high-scoring affairs — 3.5 goals per contest on average. Historical precedent backs the Over 2.5 goals market. The most recent clash, on 20 Mar 2022, ended 0–1 with Piast Gliwice winning.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.5 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.
Trading Patterns
Cracovia Krakow in-play and half-time data (37 games, 19 at home): they score before half-time in 74% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 83% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 58% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 42% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 47% of games (home games).
Piast Gliwice in-play and half-time data (37 games, 19 at away): they score before half-time in 63% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 88% of the time; BTTS occurs in 32% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 26% of games (away games); they fail to score in 32% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Cracovia Krakow 40% versus Piast Gliwice 43%; no strong lean in either direction. Under 2.5 goals has backing from the in-play data — both teams register low Over 2.5 rates (Cracovia Krakow 43% | Piast Gliwice 32%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Cracovia Krakow 1.60 xG and Piast Gliwice 0.71 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: Cracovia Krakow attack 1.222 / defence 0.717 | Piast Gliwice attack 0.838 / defence 1.013. League average goals — home 1.290 / away 1.185. Cracovia Krakow's defence rating of 0.717 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 38 Cracovia Krakow games / 37 Piast Gliwice games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Cracovia Krakow 58% | Draw 25% | Piast Gliwice 16%. Fair-value odds: Cracovia Krakow 1.72 | Draw 4.00 | Piast Gliwice 6.25. The model has a clear lean to Cracovia Krakow (58%) — a 42pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 41% | BTTS probability 41% | Total xG 2.31. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 59% — total xG of 2.31 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 41% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Cracovia Krakow at 58% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 25% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.31 combined xG gives a 41% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.
Poisson assigns a 41% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Cracovia Krakow 30% | Piast Gliwice 30% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Piast Gliwice beat Cracovia Krakow 0-1 at Stadion Cracovii im. Józefa Piłsudskiego, Regular Season - 5, in the Ekstraklasa. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Cracovia Krakow 1.60 xG and Piast Gliwice 0.71 xG, a combined 2.31. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Cracovia Krakow fell 1.6 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Cracovia Krakow attack 1.22 / defence 0.72 against Piast Gliwice attack 0.84 / defence 1.01, drawn from 38/37 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Cracovia Krakow 58% | Draw 25% | Piast Gliwice 16%, with Cracovia Krakow to win its most likely call at 58%. Instead the game produced a Piast Gliwice win, an outcome the model had rated at just 16% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 41%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 67% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 41% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 38% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Cracovia Krakow 43%, Piast Gliwice 32%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 42%, which matched the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Cracovia Krakow's trading profile (37 games, 19 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 40% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 35% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 30% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Piast Gliwice's trading profile (37 games, 19 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 43% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Cracovia Krakow 1.46 PPG, Piast Gliwice 1.46 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Piast Gliwice win broke the near-deadlock. Cracovia Krakow (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.53 scoring average — below par going forward. Piast Gliwice (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.00 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). Partial vindication: some calls landed, others slipped.
