Presov vs Katowice: match preview on 4 September 2026

Katowice are predicted to win, based on their consistent attacking output despite a winless run.

Katowice have failed to take a point in five matches, yet they have scored 18 goals in that span. Four of those five games saw them net at least four goals, including a 4-5 defeat to Rostock and a 4-6 loss away to Poprad HK. The results are losses, but the numbers show an attack capable of finding the net against any opposition. Presov, by contrast, have managed just 7 goals in five games and have failed to score in one of those matches.

Presov's record is 1 win and 4 losses, with that solitary victory coming against Tychy in a 2-1 home result. Their other four matches have produced 6 goals scored and 17 conceded. They have been particularly vulnerable at home, losing three of their four home fixtures, including a 0-3 defeat to Kosice and a 2-5 loss to Poprad HK. The defensive frailties are evident, but the lack of goals is the more pressing concern for the hosts.

Both sides have conceded heavily. Katowice have let in 27 goals in five matches, averaging nearly 5.4 per game. Presov have conceded 17, roughly 3.4 per game. Katowice's defensive record is worse, but their attacking output has been consistently higher. In the two meetings with Poprad HK, Katowice scored 8 goals while conceding 11, showing they can compete offensively even when results go against them.

A Katowice victory seems the most likely outcome given their goal-scoring rate. They have scored four or more goals in four of five matches, while Presov have managed that feat in only one. The visitors' attack should exploit Presov's defensive issues, even if Katowice's own defensive problems mean the match could be open and end-to-end.

Katowice are the clear favourites. Their attacking strength should overwhelm a Presov side that has struggled to find the net and has been porous at the back. Expect a high-scoring affair with the visitors taking all three points.
