Legia Warszawa
- Legia Warszawa have won 1, drawn 3 and lost 1 of their last 5 Ekstraklasa games.
- Legia have won 2 and drawn 1 of their 3 home games so far in Ekstraklasa 2025-2026, indicating the fortress mentality which Edward Iordanescu, their new coach since July 2025, has instilled.
- Iordanescu’s 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 formations are structured first and foremost, prioritising compactness and organised discipline, rather than a focus on players’ characteristics, but the players know their roles and the way they should play when they transition.
- The result is a very difficult to beat team on their day, particularly at home, where they score an average of 2.33 goals and concede an average of just 0.67 goals in Ekstraklasa 2025/2026. This KP Legia Warszawa vs Pogon Szczecin prediction highlights their strength at home.
Pogon Szczecin
- Pogon Szczecin have conceded an average of 2.00 goals per game away from home in Ekstraklasa 2025/2026 (10 goals conceded in 5 games).
- But Pogon have lost two on the bounce coming into this, after a 3-4 home thriller against Lechia Gdansk and a 1-0 away defeat to Korona Kielce, so the scales seem to be tipping in favour of the visitors according to our KP Legia Warszawa vs Pogon Szczecin prediction.
- Robert Kolendowicz’s 4-2-3-1 is a very different beast, although it is also structured around methodical possession football, wide overloads and the creative interplay between the lines.
- Since he took over as Pogon’s head coach in August 2024, Kolendowicz has been slowly getting his men to play his patient, possession-based game and there are signs that the team are becoming more used to it.
- But they are still adapting and the inconsistency in results shows that, with Pogon winning 1 and losing 1 of their last 2 away games.
Quick glance
This KP Legia Warszawa vs Pogon Szczecin preview shows that Legia have a good record against Pogon, but have failed to win in their last 2 games on home soil against the Blue and Whites, suggesting the hosts may have a mental barrier to overcome on Sunday.
Players to watch
