Poland Ekstraklasa: GKS Katowice vs Zaglebie 28/07/2025
Betting on Goals
Both teams will be looking to bounce back from opening-round defeats and secure valuable points to restore some peace at home.
Katowice suffered a 0-1 loss to Raków at home in their first match, while Zagłębie fell by the same scoreline away to Widzew Łódź.
Why do I expect few goals?
These are classic defensive-minded teams where the tempo completely changes after the first goal. I expect the score to stay 0-0 for quite a while, and even if someone scores, 1 or 2 goals at most is what we can realistically expect.
In fact, 4 of the last 5 head-to-head meetings between these sides saw no more than two goals. Considering the importance of this match and both teams’ desire to avoid a second consecutive defeat, this prediction makes perfect sense.
The odds are currently decent at 1.80, and there’s definitely some value in backing 0-1 goals.
