Stal Gorzów in trouble before the match with GKM. The coach's words may hurt

Stal is seventh in the table. It has just three points and is ahead of only Innpro ROW Rybnik. Its chances of advancing to the play-offs are illusory.

Everything indicates that Gorzów will go to the play-down for places 5-8, where the fight will start again. But it is hard to imagine how the atmosphere around the team will thicken if Stal lost at home to GKM, which has a great chance for the play-offs.

The chances of the Grudziądz team for success in Gorzów have increased after the announced training in Gorzów was canceled on Friday. All because of the rain and the tarpaulin. Whenever a tarpaulin appears on the track, it is beneficial for the guests.

- The weather is not favourable for us - Piotr Świst, Stal's coach, admitted before the match on Radio Gorzów. - A message came to put up a tarpaulin. We did it at the last minute, just before the rain. The tarpaulin is new, and the temperature under it is huge, like in a greenhouse. With the advantage of the track, it can be different. However, you have to keep the gas pedal, drive and win the races - he added.

Piotr Świst referred to the past, when Stal usually fought for the highest goals, and GKM not necessarily, and Stal was the favorite. - When I recall other years, if we are to be afraid of Grudziądz, who are we to beat? It is true that they are doing well, but our players have potential. I am convinced that they are doing everything to get themselves together and win - said Świst for Radio Gorzów. However, today GKM is not only a much better team than Stal Gorzów on paper, and the Grudziądz players can actually win on Sunday, which will not be a big surprise.
