Cracovia take on the visitors Piast Gliwice at “Stadion MKS Cracovia” in the opening clash of the Polish Ekstraklasa. The match will be played in Krakow on Saturday, July 15th.
Last season Cracovia almost left the elite division as the team had finished the Ekstraklasa season just two points ahead of the teams relegated from the elite division. This summer Cracovia played four encounters resulting in 2:2 draw against Karvina alongside with three defeats: vs. Sandecja Nowy S. 0:1, vs. Pogon Szczecin 1:2 and vs. Zaglebie 0:2.
Piast Gliwice finished last season with four-match winning run which allowed them to stay in the Ekstraklasa. During the summer break Piast Gliwice participated in six clashes getting 1:1 draw vs. Zaglebie alongside with five losses to: Tychy 0:3, H. Beer Sheva 0:1, Pogon Szczecin 1:3, Fulham 0:1 and Sigma Olomouc 1:2.

Cracovia and Piast Gliwice are the teams of the bottom half of the table of the Polish elite division. This summer friendly fights demonstrated that the both rivals were struggling in offense and scored goals with the great difficulties. Consequently, the opponents are likely to follow up the battle for a place in Ekstraklasa again in new season not even thinking about for a mid-table position. Absence at least one victory in summer pause is the best evidence of the teams’ potential and force, especially bearing in mind that they faced not the most solid rivals during the training camp to the next season. I believe that they will not please spectators with numerous scored goals in upcoming head-to-head.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
