On the 18th of February, Raków Częstochowa will host Górnik Zabrze in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched Ekstraklasa teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 4 degrees, making for an unpleasant day. In their last match, Raków Częstochowa recorded a 0-0 scoreless draw against Stal Mielec. Stal Mielec had 3 on net, and Raków Częstochowa had 15, but no one could beat the goalie, and the game ended in a 0-0 draw,. Raków Częstochowa is on a hot streak lately, with 8 wins in their last 10 matches, while 13th placed Górnik Zabrze is fresh off their 0-0 scoreless draw against Radomiak Radom. Neither Górnik Zabrze nor Radomiak Radom could manage to put one past the goalie. They had 16 and 17 shots on net respectively, but no one could score, and the match ended in a 0 – 0 draw,. Górnik Zabrze looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 9 points in their last 10 matches.
In their last match on Aug 7th, Górnik Zabrze won by a score of 1 to 0 in front of almost 17000 jubilant spectators. Aleksander Paluszek scored the first goal for Górnik Zabrze in the 45th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Raków Częstochowa was frustrated by Górnik Zabrze’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Górnik Zabrze ended the match with the shutout victory. Stratos Svarnas and Czerwinski are the top scorers for Raków Częstochowa in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
