1. Amica 3 9 3-0-0 10:2
2. Zagłębie 3 4 1-1-1 7:5
-------------------
3. Kotwica 3 3 1-0-2 5:10
4. Polkowice 3 1 0-1-2 3:8
Ekstraklasa team (Amica) away at 3rd league side (Kotwica). Easy away win? Nah, I don't think so...
What to say about Amica? Small, calm, reasonably built club with some nice successes on the Polish ground. However, they're not impressive at all this season. They're 3rd in Polish Ekstraklasa, but they're showing bad performance in most matches, they're usually very lucky. The same thing in UEFA Cup - after eliminating 2 poor opponents (Honved, Ventspils), they're the only Polish club in group phase, their results are bad though (0:5 H Rangers, 1:3 A Grazer AK).
Amica looks very tired (almost "dead") recently and this pitiful sight is intensified with some press comments of Amica players. I don't think that they're delighted with necessity to play against Kotwica...
On the other hand, Kotwica is strong 3rd league team. They're sitting comfortably on the 2nd place in their division with excellent balance (15 matches, 33 points, 11-0-4). They're magnificent on their home ground (8-0-0 in league matches + 3:1 win against 2nd league Polkowice in Polish Cup). Their recent form is even more impressive - 6 wins from 7 games (23 goals scored!), they lost only against leader from Toruń (2:3, little bit unlucky).
I guess that Amica coach will field totally changed line-up and I think this line-up should be more or less equal to "Amica B" team (which plays in the same division with Kotwica and lost there).
Giocata minima, solo per divertimento
