Piast Gliwice vs Widzew Lodz prediction, odds and how to watch

Widzew Lodz and Radomiak Radom served up a goalless draw in the Polish Ekstraklasa on Saturday, with both sides squandering three big chances apiece in a match that had plenty of effort but precious little execution.

Piast Gliwice put Katowice to the sword with a composed 3-0 home win, converting their chances with ruthless efficiency while Katowice gifted them the platform through a shocking six yellow cards and 13 fouls.

Śląsk Wrocław controlled 69% of possession, generated more dangerous attacks and created more big chances, yet Widzew Lodz came from behind twice to earn a 3-3 draw that the statistics suggest the home side did not deserve to let slip.

Piast Gliwice host Widzew Lodz on Sunday afternoon with recent form inconsistent on both sides and a recent head-to-head defeat still fresh in the memory. Something has to give.

Piast Gliwice host a Pogoń Szczecin side who have won three of their last five away matches, arriving at a ground where the home side have kept precisely zero clean sheets in their last five outings. The structural problems are clear on both sides of the ball for Piast, and Sunday's fixture looks a difficult one to navigate.

Widzew Lodz carry a strong home record into Friday's Ekstraklasa fixture against a Wieczysta Kraków side yet to keep a clean sheet this season. The patterns in the data tell a clear tactical story about what to expect.

With both sides sitting in the bottom four and confidence in short supply, Monday's Ekstraklasa meeting at Radom carries genuine urgency for the hosts and their visitors alike.

Legia Warszawa head into Sunday's home fixture as the Ekstraklasa's form team, having conceded just one goal in five home matches. Widzew Lodz arrive in decent overall shape but with an away record that raises serious questions about their ability to cope with what awaits them at the Legia Stadium.
