Wednesday’s program will get underway at 17:30 (16:30) with a game between JSW Jastrzebski Wegiel Jastrzebie-Zdroj and BOGDANKA LUK Lublin of the fifth leg. Both teams played a major role in the 2024-2025 PlusLiga season. Jastrzebski Wegiel won the regular season, while Lublin persevered through the playoffs to claim their historic first national title. So far this season, however, their results have been below the expectations and they will both be eager to make amends as they face one another in Jastrzebie-Zdroj on Wednesday. BOGDANKA are currently on a three-game losing streak, in sixth place on 10 and 3-3, while their hosts are eighth on 7 and 3-2, with a game in hand. The two teams met some two weeks ago in the Poland Super Cup final, when the Lublin side celebrated a four-set victory and another historic success for the club. The all-time head-to-head between the two clubs, however, stands at 10-4 Jastrzebski Wegiel’s way.
The fifth leg will continue with Wednesday evening’s encounter between Asseco Resovia Rzeszow and ZAKSA Kedzierzyn-Kozle at the Podpromie hall, serving off at 20:00 (19:00). Resovia remained the only undefeated team since the start of the PlusLiga season. On 13 points and five wins in five matches, they stand third in the table, below Indykpol and Aluron, who have 15 points each, but from six and seven matches played, respectively. One of Poland’s big powerhouses ZAKSA have been struggling to find their way back to the glory of their recent past. So far this season, they are on a negative 2-3 win-loss record and occupy ninth place on 7 points. The last meetings between Resovia and ZAKSA were in last season’s fifth-place playoff, when the team from Kedzierzyn-Kozle won both matches and edged further ahead, by 47-43, in the all-time head-to-head PlusLiga record between the two clubs.
