The clash between Arka Gdynia and Wisła Płock promises to be one of the most exciting matches of the round in the PKO Bank Polski Ekstraklasa, pitting a team that’s a fortress at home against a newly promoted side enjoying a historic start.

Arka Gdynia, a fortress at home

The Gdynia side has not lost in their last 15 home league matches (Ekstraklasa: 1 win, 1 draw; 1. Liga: 10 wins, 3 draws).

During this streak, they conceded only 10 goals in 15 matches (2 in Ekstraklasa and 8 in 1. Liga).

In the current season’s opening, they’ve allowed one goal or fewer in 5 out of 6 matches, showcasing defensive solidity.

The presence of Joao Oliveira stands out, as the team has not conceded a single goal in the 234 minutes he’s played this season.

In attack, Arka has a distinctive trait: 50% of their goals have come from headers (2 out of 4).

There’s also a curious stat: when Arka beats Wisła Płock in Ekstraklasa, they do so with thrashings of at least 3 goals (3-1 and 4-1 in their two previous victories).

Wisła Płock, a record-breaking promoted team

The visitors are the only unbeaten team this season, earning 16 out of 18 possible points with an 88.9% performance rate.

They previously achieved an identical start in the 2022/23 and 2025/26 seasons, making them the only club in the 21st century to do so twice.

If they avoid defeat, they’ll become the first newly promoted team in the 21st century to remain unbeaten after 7 matchdays.

And if they win, they’ll reach 19 points in 7 matches, a feat not seen since Wisła Kraków in 2009/10.

They arrive on a 9-match unbeaten streak in official competitions (8 wins, 1 draw), including league, playoffs, and 1. Liga.

They are also the team with the fewest goals conceded (0.5 per match, tied with Legia) and the only one that hasn’t conceded in the second half of matches.

In attack, Łukasz Sekulski leads the scoring chart among Polish players with 4 goals.

Another point to consider: in every Ekstraklasa visit to Gdynia, Wisła Płock has always scored.

What’s at stake

Arka aims to extend their home unbeaten streak and halt a Wisła Płock side that has become the tournament’s big revelation. While the hosts rely on their defensive solidity and aerial effectiveness, the visitors come in as Poland’s hottest team, with numbers pointing to a historic campaign for a newly promoted side.
