Puszcza is currently 14th in the table with 32 points, two ahead of Korona, which is already in the relegation zone. Both teams won in the last round – “Żubry” defeated Cracovia, also fighting for relegation, 1-0, and Korona defeated Radomiak 4-0.
“We have another very important match ahead of us, for six points, although you can only win three on the pitch, but that is the truth at this stage of the competition. These matches are really important and we are aware of it. I hope the players will take to the pitch and they will play to the best of their abilities. Let the one who is better win. The opponent will definitely be determined and that is why we are working so hard in the context of the plan for this match and how to avoid moments when Korona can be effective “However, I believe that this meeting will not resolve anything, but it may result in a different situation,” he said.
Puszcza’s coach appreciates the class of its rival and believes that – just like another rival in the fight for relegation, i.e. Cracovia – its potential is greater than its position in the table.
Korona’s squad is built in an impressive way and everyone in Kielce probably expected that this team would be much higher. Korona recently won big and showed good form. We are prepared to do this in such a way as to score points,” he emphasized.
The match between Puszcza and Korona will start on Monday at 19. All results of the 30th round will already be known, but Włacz assured that it will not have any impact on the functioning of the team. He also admitted that last week he did not look at the table once to analyze his team’s chances of relegation.
The last match against Cracovia had to end prematurely due to an injury. The main striker of “Żubrów”, Kamil Zapolnik, had to end prematurely due to an injury. It is not known yet whether he will be able to play.
“We are slowly getting the players back to health. It is not yet time for me to say that everyone will be ready to play, but I am optimistic that everyone will be able to get back on their feet and they will be at my disposal. Our intensity in the game and determination means that that we have a lot of micro-injuries, but I am convinced that we will cope with it,” promised Włacz.
In the autumn match between these teams in Kielce, Korona won against Puszcza 5:3.
