Legia Warsaw is swinging too much in the season and that is very little for a team of its size. It has a quality template, but it lacks a bit more attention. Therefore, you have to correct mistakes and show more determination throughout the games. By the time it grows, the positive results will appear more often. Therefore, you have to work harder to achieve your goals.
PREDICTION: Legia to win @ 2,05
