NOVYHOTEL FALUBAZ Zielona Góra had an unsuccessful match and a defeat against EBUT.PL STAL Gorzów Wlkp. in the Lubusz Derby. The team led by Tomasz Szymankiewicz awaits another tough match on Friday as the current Polish champions, ORLEN OIL MOTOR Lublin, visit the stadium at W69. Zielona Góra players will surely want to take advantage of their home track, where Jarosław Hampel and the team can showcase very good racing.

ORLEN OIL MOTOR Lublin in the last round defeated KRONO-PLAST WŁÓKNIARZ Częstochowa on their home track. Wiktor Przyjemski showed great racing in this match, scoring 10 points. Fans might be worried about the form of Jack Holder, who has recently had weaker performances. The manager of the Polish champions, Jacek Ziółkowski, assures that he believes in his rider and in his opinion, the Australian will cope with the temporary crisis.

An away defeat to FOGO UNIA Leszno caused considerable dissatisfaction within the ranks of ZOOLESZCZ GKM Grudziądz. In the match against EBUT.PL STAL Gorzów, the team led by coach Robert Kościecha will want to continue their streak of home victories. A win in Friday’s match can not only significantly bring the home team closer to staying in the PGE Ekstraliga, but also keep the chances for Grudziądz to advance to the play-off phase.
