Kickstarting our Friday action, we’ve got Wisła Płock taking on RTS Widzew Łódź in the Poland Ekstraklasa. Both teams are eyeing crucial points to boost their standings early in the season. Widzew has had a slightly better start and will look to exploit Płock's shaky home form.
Looking at the stats, Wisła has struggled to find the back of the net, which is reflected in their 0% potential for over 2.5 goals and 0% for both teams to score.
