Also Lech Poznan PK @ -138 away at Ruch Chorzow (Polish Ekstraklasa)...
Ruch Chorzow sit in 14th place in the league while Lech are in third-place challenging Polonia and Legia for the title. Lech Poznan's away form (7 wins, 0 draws, 1 loss) has been far superior to their home form (2 wins, 2 draws, 3 losses) this season and is the reason why they are still in with a chance of challenging Legia for the Championship. With 21 pts gained on their travels they have by far the best away record in the league and have only conceded 5 goals (the lowest in the league). This doesn't bode well for a team like Ruch who despite only losing 2 games at home this season, have really struggled to score goals with the joint-third worst offensive record in the league scoring just 7 goals. Moreover, Arkadiusz Piech had scored 4 of those and he has joined Sivasspor during the Winter so they are now a side that struggled to score goals in the first place and are now without their top-scorer!
Lech on the other-hand have strengthened their side by adding Polonia striker Lukasz Teodorczyk (13 apps, 6 goals), and Finnish trequartista Kasper Hamalainen from Djurgardens who has impressed during the Winter friendlies (see video). Despite being third in the league, Lech only have the 6th best offensive record with 20 goals scored but these two players should help relieve some of the pressure on top-scorer Slusarksi (13 apps, 8 goals) and could form a very dangerous trident attack that is now on a par with their solid defense. Centre-back Arboleda (10 apps) will be unavailable, but Ruch also have a regular defender out in Sadlok (11 apps). When these two met earlier in the season in Poznan, the home side won 4-0, although Ruch have won the last 2 home games against Lech 3-0 and 1-0. Nonetheless, I'm expecting Lech to win this 1 or 2-0 and continue their superb away record.
