This coming Sunday, February 23, 2025, Lech Poznań will host Zagłębie Lubin at Enea Stadion in the 22nd round of the PKO BP Ekstraklasa. The match promises to be exciting, with the hosts fighting for valuable points that could help them increase their chances of winning the Polish Championship, while the Coppers will want to move away from the relegation zone.
Team Form
Lech Poznań lost in the last round at their stadium to Raków Częstochowa, losing 0-1 after a goal by Swarnas. After the start of the spring round, Lech won only one match and lost two. It can also be emphasized that one match was distorted by the referees, and this is precisely the match Lechia Gdańsk - Lech Poznań, where Bobcek (Lechia Gdańsk) scored a goal, but his teammate blocked Bartek Mrożek's view, but the referee ultimately recognized the goal. Miedź, just like Niels Frederiksen's team, won one match and lost the next two, which is shocking, Zagłębie lost to Lechia Gdańsk 1-3 on Monday 17.02.2025. Zagłębie is currently in 14th place and will try to move away from the relegation zone after this match.
Who won't play?
Currently, as of 18/02/2025, it is not known who may not play in this match, but we are counting on both teams to play with full squads.
Key players
For Lech Poznań, Mikael Ishak, a Swedish striker, will certainly be a key player. He has 12 goals and 3 assists, making him the third best scorer, ahead of only Jesus Imaz and Benjamin Kallman. Looking at the other side in Zagłębie Lubin, we can expect a good performance from Tomasz Pieńko. The Pole has played 17 games this season, including 3 goals and 1 assist.
Fans
As reported by Orange City Boys '03, Zagłębie is expected to appear in Poznań in a good number of people, the Coppers have informed that they will travel by bus to Poznań, where they will support the Coppers.
Lech Poznań, on the other hand, has not yet announced the number of tickets sold for the match with Zagłębie Lubin, but we can expect it to be around 30 thousand, as Lech Poznań Ultras commented. "Dear fans! Another weekend of pitch competitions is ahead of us, heck, there are still a dozen or so left until the end of the season. We hope that none of you have had the stupid idea of skipping the next match with Zagłębie. Because it's cold, because it's Sunday, because we have to go sledding, because we lost two matches in a row. We don't even want to hear such b... swearing. See you on Sunday and we'll go cheering as if we were going to play the most important match of the season. If you see that one of your colleagues who was with you at the previous matches is mumbling something under his breath and starts to scribble, your role is to pull him by the ear and drag him to the stadium. And that's it. See you on Sunday, Hey Lech!"
