Lars's Verdict

Lean
Lech Poznan to win Won Slight lean Lean · recent form edge

The model assigns Lech a 37.1% chance of victory, matching their higher recent win count and Piast’s three‑game losing streak.

Show the maths
Both teams sit at 1.35 expected goals, so the model’s win probabilities hinge on recent performance. Lech’s two wins in the last five (including a 3-1 away triumph) lift their win rating to 37.1%, while Piast’s three consecutive losses drag their win chance to the same 37.1% but leave them vulnerable. The draw sits lower at 25.8%, making the Lech win the most probable single outcome.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Lost 54.9% model probability

With Lech Poznan averaging 1.35 expected goals and Piast Gliwice averaging 1.35, the model gives a 54.9% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 45.1% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Lech Poznan 1.35, Piast Gliwice 1.35) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 54.9% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 45.1% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Won 50.6% model probability

Combined expected goals of 2.7 (Lech Poznan 1.35 + Piast Gliwice 1.35) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 50.6% chance against 49.4% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Lech Poznan 1.35 + Piast Gliwice 1.35 = 2.7 combined): 50.6% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 49.4% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Lech Poznan at 37.1%, the draw at 25.8%, and Piast Gliwice at 37.1% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 12.2% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Form Guide — Last 5

Lech Poznan

DWDDW

Lech’s DWDDW run includes a 3-1 win over Radomiak Radom (away) and a 2-1 win versus Wieczysta Kraków (away), demonstrating they can break through defenses. The three draws (1-1, 2-2, 0-0) show a tendency to share points, but the two wins suggest they have enough quality to edge a close game, supporting a win pick.

Piast Gliwice

LLLW

Piast’s LLLW sequence features heavy defeats – 1-3 at home to Raków, 1-2 away to Widzew Łódź, and 0-2 away to Zaglebie Lubin – before a 4-3 home win over Wisła Kraków. The three losses expose defensive issues, while the solitary win was high‑scoring, indicating they are more likely to concede than keep a clean sheet, which undercuts a Piast win.

Head-to-Head

In the last five meetings, Lech won 3-0 (Feb 2026) and 2-0 (Dec 2025) and also secured a 1-0 win (May 2025), while Piast managed a 1-0 win (Feb 2026) and a 0-0 draw (Nov 2024). The recent dominance by Lech aligns with the pick of a Lech win.
