Raków Częstochowa and Katowice meet in the league with their situations clearly moving in opposite directions. The hosts are rooted at the bottom of the table with a record of losing for almost the entire season, while the visitors sit in the upper half of the table and have collected more wins. In this game the hosts need points to steady their situation, while the visitors want to keep their rhythm going. Raków just won in their latest match, but the overall picture of the season is still heavy: 12 scored, 21 conceded in 9 games, numbers that say the defence is the main problem. Katowice, meanwhile, arrive unbeaten in two straight, but those two were open, entertaining games that ended 3-2 and 1-1, which reflects that the visitors' defence is not exactly tight either. If the hosts score first, the game should open up into a long exchange, because both sides concede often and it tends to end with the margin decided by very little. The first thing to watch after kick-off is whether the hosts can set up their defence, because if they defend poorly like in previous games, the match will turn into a chase from the start.
