Lech vs Thun: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from Poznań has reaffirmed its dominance in Polish football by defending its championship title and starting the new season with a win in the national Supercup. In the Ekstraklasa, they started with a draw but then secured two consecutive victories. The visitors, having just been promoted from the second division, won the Super League trophy for the first time in their history. However, after a coaching change, they've already lost twice in their first three league matches, although they did manage an impressive 6-0 win in the cup recently.
The Polish side suffered a shocking exit from the Champions League. They started with a 4-1 away win over Aarhus but allowed their opponent to take revenge at home and lost on penalties. However, in the less prestigious European competition, they defeated KI Klaksvik twice, following a 1-0 home win with a 5-0 thrashing away.
The Swiss team had a bitterly quick farewell from the main European tournament. Both of their matches against Dinamo Zagreb ended in high-scoring draws, but they conceded a decisive goal in extra time in Croatia. Against Vikingur, after a 3-0 home win, they lost 2-3 in Reykjavik.
