Most likely scorelines
Model probabilities are derived from each team's real season goals-for and goals-against averages via a Poisson goal-expectancy model — not a fixed set of narrative numbers.
Form Guide — Last 5
Motor Lublin
Lublin opened the stretch with a 1‑0 home win over GKS Katowice, then drew 1‑1 away at Korona Kielce, but have since lost three consecutive league games, including a 0‑2 home defeat to Piast Gliwice and a 2‑3 home loss to Legia Warszawa. This run of defeats underscores a faltering defence and limited scoring, which weakens their chances of securing a win here.
Gornik Zabrze
Zabrze have been prolific, beating Wisla Krakow 2‑1 at home, then securing a 2‑1 away win at Raków Częstochowa and a 1‑0 away victory over Cracovia Krakow. Their only setback was a 2‑3 home loss to GKS Katowice, but four wins in five matches demonstrate strong attacking form and defensive solidity.
Head-to-Head
In the last four meetings, Motor Lublin earned a 0‑0 draw, a 0‑1 home win, and a 1‑0 home win, while Gornik managed a single 4‑0 victory in March 2025. The head‑to‑head record slightly favors Lublin, yet the model still projects a Zabrze win based on current form and expected goals.
